Heat – Treated Glass
Description:
At IKK Glass facilities, we efficiently process Annealed Float Glass in a horizontal tempering furnace to increase its resistance against dynamic and thermal stress conditions that may cause breakage.
Types
- Fully Tempered Glass (FT)
- Heat Strengthened Glass (HT)

| Description: A fully tempered Heat-Treated Glass is internationally certified as a | Description: Heat Strengthened Glass is a semi-tempered glass that is considered the first technical choice for façade glazing applications due to its resistance to spontaneous breaking and has reduced roller wave distortion. |
| Features: Resistance to Thermal Stress: ≥ 6 times than Annealed Glass. Maximum Operating Temperature: 280 C, withstand thermal down-shock of 200 C. Fracture: Breaks into small harmless particles. Quality: Full compliance with all the latest international safety standards, including EN 12600 and ANSI Z97. The room temperature in FT reaches 600 degrees Celsius, and the temperature is adjusted according to the thickness of the glass. | Features: Resistance to Thermal Stress: ≥ 2 times than Annealed Glass. Maximum Operating Temperature: 120 C. Fracture: Breaks into large pieces, remains in the original place and does not fall. Quality: Full compliance with all the latest international safety standards, including EN 1863. |
| Applications: Windows or curtainwall systems. Internal partition and building cover All frameless glass applications, including furniture, splash-backs, and oven doors, shower box and Glass railing. Widely used in public transport stations and airports. Digitally printed ceramic, flat painted images, and laser printed designs might all be applied. | Applications: Windows or curtainwall systems where full protection is not required. Façade glazing applications where full protection is not required. Not applicable to bolted frameless glazing applications. Use HS laminated glass in Sloped Glazing for a wide variety of architectural applications that require sufficient strength to resist stress caused by the absorption of solar energy and forces of deflection caused by intense wind and dead loads. |
