Kaca Terbaja

What Are Tempered Glass Features

As a member of safety glass, the main characteristic of tempered glass is its safety. When tempered glass is damaged by external force, it will break into small, almost harmless particles, instead of sharp, jagged fragments, which could seriously injure our body.

Kaca terbaja boleh menahan suhu yang lebih tinggi daripada kaca biasa, menjadikannya sesuai untuk digunakan dalam persekitaran yang terdedah kepada haba yang ketara, seperti percikan belakang dapur, pintu ketuhar dan alat memasak kaca. Keupayaannya untuk menahan variasi suhu tanpa pecah juga menjadikannya pilihan yang sangat baik untuk aplikasi luaran seperti skylight dan fasad.

Kaca terbaja adalah kira-kira empat hingga lima kali lebih kuat daripada kaca standard dengan ketebalan yang sama. Peningkatan kekuatan ini dicapai melalui proses penyejukan pantas semasa pembuatannya, yang mewujudkan keadaan mampatan pada permukaan kaca. Proses ini bukan sahaja meningkatkan ketahanannya tetapi juga menjadikannya lebih tahan terhadap hentaman dan tekanan haba.

The Types of Tempered Glass

Shottglass menawarkan terutamanya dua jenis kaca terbaja: kaca terbaja rata dan kaca terbaja melengkung, kedua-duanya boleh memberikan harta keselamatan yang luar biasa.
Kaca terbaja rata: Dengan menggunakan kaca apungan berkualiti tinggi sebagai kepingan kaca asas, kadar letupan diri dan herotan permukaan kaca terbaja rata kami dikawal dengan berkesan. Ini sangat mengurangkan kos perkhidmatan selepas jualan dan meningkatkan pengalaman produk.
Kaca terbaja melengkung: Berbanding dengan biasa kaca bengkok/melengkung, kaca jenis ini lebih sesuai untuk aplikasi yang memerlukan perhatian yang lebih terhadap keselamatan, seperti dinding langsir, glass partitions, dan langkan kaca.

Tempered Glass Applications

Dalam seni bina dan reka bentuk dalaman, kaca terbaja digunakan secara meluas untuk tingkap, pintu dan sekatan. Ciri kekuatan dan keselamatannya menjadikannya sesuai untuk kawasan lalu lintas tinggi, seperti tangga, lorong.

Tempered glass is a standard material for vehicle windows, especially side and rear windows. Its ability to withstand impact and reduce injury in accidents makes it an essential component of automotive safety.

Kaca terbaja juga digunakan untuk banyak perabot moden dan perkakas rumah. Ia biasanya ditemui di atas meja, rak, pintu pancuran mandian, dan sebagai pelindung panel kaca dalam pelbagai peralatan. Ketahanan dan penampilannya yang anggun menjadikannya bahan yang digemari oleh pengilang dan pereka.

Dalam bangunan komersial dan awam, kaca terbaja digunakan untuk fasad luaran, skylight dan dinding tirai kerana keupayaannya untuk menahan tekanan persekitaran dan ciri keselamatannya. Ia juga digunakan dalam pembinaan tempat perlindungan pengangkutan awam, pondok telefon, dan pelbagai infrastruktur awam lain yang memerlukan keselamatan dan ketahanan.

What's the Difference Between Tempered Glass and Regular Glass

When it comes to choosing glass for your home, office, or commercial space, safety, strength, and functionality all come into play. One of the most common questions we hear at Shottglass is: “What’s the real difference between tempered glass and regular glass?” Let’s clear that up.

Regular glass, also known as annealed glass, is the standard type of glass used in everyday items like picture frames, windows, and some furniture tops. It’s made by cooling molten glass slowly to relieve internal stresses. While it’s relatively inexpensive and easy to cut or shape, it can be fragile. When broken, regular glass shatters into sharp, jagged pieces that can be dangerous, especially in high-traffic or child-friendly areas.

Tempered glass, on the other hand, is specially heat-treated to make it significantly stronger, up to four to five times more than regular glass. The process involves heating the glass to high temperatures and then rapidly cooling it. This creates internal tension, which gives tempered glass its strength and safety features. Instead of shattering into sharp shards, it breaks into small, blunt-edged pieces that are far less likely to cause injury.

At Shottglass, we specialize in providing high-quality tempered glass that meets rigorous safety standards for both residential and commercial applications. Whether you're installing shower enclosures, glass doors, tabletops, or protective screens, tempered glass offers peace of mind without compromising on design or clarity.

Another key difference? Tempered glass can withstand higher temperatures and sudden thermal changes, making it ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoor areas. It’s also more impact-resistant, which is why it’s the go-to choice for safety glazing in vehicles, buildings, and even mobile devices.

Choosing between tempered and regular glass comes down to how and where the glass will be used. For areas that require extra safety, durability, or exposure to heat, tempered glass is the smart investment. If you’re working on a simple interior project where safety isn’t a concern, regular glass may be suitable.

No matter your needs, Shottglass is here to guide you through the selection process. With our expert knowledge and quality manufacturing, we help ensure your glass performs as beautifully as it looks.

Is tempered glass breakable?

Yes, tempered glass can break, but it is significantly stronger than regular glass. When it does break, it shatters into small, blunt pieces rather than sharp shards, greatly reducing the risk of injury.

What is tempered glass used for?

Tempered glass is widely used in applications where safety, strength, and thermal resistance are important. Common uses include shower doors, glass partitions, building facades, car windows, oven doors, mobile phone screens, and glass railings.

What is tempered glass made of?

Tempered glass is made from ordinary float glass that has been processed through extreme heating (around 620°C) followed by rapid cooling. This thermal process increases its strength and makes it safer upon impact.

Can tempered glass be cut after production?

No. Tempered glass cannot be cut, drilled, or reshaped after it has been tempered. Any modifications must be made before the tempering process begins.

Is tempered glass scratch-resistant?

Tempered glass is more scratch-resistant than regular glass, but it’s not completely scratch-proof. Surface hardness is improved, making it more suitable for high-contact or outdoor applications.

How can I tell if glass is tempered?

Tempered glass often has a small etched or stamped label in one of the corners. If not labeled, you can sometimes identify it with polarized sunglasses or tools that detect surface stress patterns.

Does tempered glass provide UV protection?

While standard tempered glass blocks some UV rays, it doesn’t offer complete UV protection. For full UV resistance, a coating or laminated layer may be required.

Can tempered glass withstand heat?

Yes. One of the key benefits of tempered glass is its ability to withstand high temperatures, typically up to 250–300°C, making it suitable for ovens, cooktops, and architectural glazing in sunny environments.

Is tempered glass heavier than regular glass?

No. Tempering does not change the density of the glass. Tempered and regular glass of the same thickness weigh the same, though tempered glass is stronger and more impact-resistant.

Why should I choose tempered glass over regular glass?

Tempered glass offers enhanced safety, durability, and thermal stability. It’s ideal for both residential and commercial applications where performance and security are essential.
