Linit Tough tempered



Linit Tough is thermically tempered u-channel glass.
All Linit u-channel glass textures can be tempered in lengths up to 7 metres in both standard and low iron glass. Tempered glass can also be sandblasted and painted. Enamelled glass is tempered during the enamelling process.
Thermically toughened Linit Tough meets the requirements laid down for cast glass in EN 14179-1 for tempered safety glass with regard to fracture behaviour. In addition, in accordance with EN 14719-1 for cast glass, Linit Tough has significantly increased thermal shock resistance of 150K compared to non-tempered glass so that in standard cases, there is no risk of fracture due to increased thermic stresses.
In order to minimise the risk of fracture from nickel sulphite inclusions, which can cause spontaneous breakages in fully tempered glass, Linit Tough is heat soak tested in Lamberts heat soak furnace which was designed to specifically test u-channel glass and is subjected to regular independent inspection and testing.
