Product Overview

U glass (U channel glass/U profile glass)

Tempered & frosted U Shaped Glass undergo sandblasting or frosting followed by a specialized tempering process. Utilizing custom-constructed tempering ovens designed specifically for three-dimensional channel glass up to 20' long, our procedures ensure dimensionally consistent glass quality.

Tempered U channel glass is annealed glass that has undergone secondary heat treatment to raise compression to 10,000 psi or greater. It is three to five times stronger than standard annealed channel glass and is characterized by its safe break pattern—forming small, harmless fragments (dicing) that reduce the risk of injury from sharp shards.

Key Features & Advantages

A rough sand blasted exterior face diffuses light and offers excellent personal space privacy.
Up to 5 times stronger than ordinary glass of the same thickness.
Excellent soundproof properties for building environments.
High resistance to sudden temperature changes and impact.
Superior deflection properties and tolerance of repetitive load variations.
Enhanced safety: shatters into tiny pellets if breakage occurs.

Professional Tempering Process

Our tempering machines are engineered for three-dimensional channel glass, supporting lengths up to 20 feet. This secondary heat treatment increases the glass strength significantly. Tempered channel glass is recognized globally for its durability and the unique "dicing" phenomenon, which marks a significant safety improvement over standard jagged glass breakage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is U Channel Glass?
U Channel Glass is a specialized translucent U-shaped cast glass produced in various widths and flange heights, commonly used for structural glazing and architectural partitions.
How strong is tempered U glass compared to regular glass?
Tempered U glass is approximately three to five times stronger than standard annealed glass of the same thickness, offering high resistance to impact and thermal stress.
Is the frosted surface permanent?
Yes, the frosted or sandblasted exterior is part of the manufacturing process and provides permanent light diffusion and privacy without fading.
What happens if the glass breaks?
If breakage occurs, the tempered glass shatters into hundreds of tiny, relatively blunt pellets (dicing) which significantly reduces the risk of serious injury.
Can U channel glass be customized for specific projects?
Absolutely. All our U glass products are customized including dimensions, tints, and tempering specifications to meet unique architectural requirements.
What is the maximum length available for U channel glass?
We utilize custom tempering ovens that can process three-dimensional channel glass up to 20 feet (approximately 6 meters) in length.
