Product Details
Tempered safety glazing is heat-treated glass designed to provide increased strength and safety performance compared to standard annealed glass. When broken, tempered glass fractures into small particles to reduce injury risk. Designed for commercial hollow metal doors and commercial wood doors, this glazing is commonly used in vision lites, borrowed lites, sidelites, and transoms where safety glazing is required but fire ratings are not necessary.
