Wire Glass Options
Impact Tested: 400 ft-lb missile impact tested. Engineered for increased strength and durability.
Safety-Filmed Wire Glass: Wire is embedded and safety film is fused to the glass during manufacturing. This process strengthens the glass, makes it more resistant to impact, and allows the glass to temporarily remain intact after exposure to fire.
Fire Protective Glass: Fire protective glass is a designation of fire-rated glazing for commercial windows and doors. Fire protective glass is used as a barrier against flames, smoke and toxic gasses to allow building occupants time to escape. Although fire protective glass blocks flames, it is not a barrier to radiant heat. Because it is not a barrier to heat transfer, fire protective glass can only be used within strict size limitations.
Human-Impact Safety Glass: Human-Impact safety glass is designed for use in commercial buildings where incidental impact may occur. Human impact safety glass is usually thicker, harder, and more impact resistant than conventional glass products.
- Safety Filmed Wire Glass – Diamond Wire Pattern: Fire-rated and safety-filmed wire embedded glass for use in commercial windows and doors.
- Wire Glass with Safety Film – Square Pattern: Fire-rated and safety-filmed wire embedded glass for use in commercial window and door assemblies
- 20 Minute Fire-Protective Glass: When used within size limitations, 20 minute fire protective glass is approved for use in commercial window and door assemblies. Fire-protective glass is not a barrier to radiant heat.
- 45 Minute Fire-Protective Glass: When used within size limitations, 45 minute fire protective glass is approved for use in commercial window and door assemblies. Fire-protective glass is not a barrier to radiant heat.
- 60 Minute Fire-Protective Glass: When used within size limitations, 60 minute fire protective glass is approved for use in commercial window and door assemblies. Fire-protective glass is not a barrier to radiant heat.
