What is 8mm 10mm clear float glass?

8mm and 10mm plain clear float glass is a common type of flat glass with a specific thickness and a wide range of applications. This type of glass is usually made from sea sand or quartz sandstone powder, soda ash, dolomite and other raw materials in a certain proportion. After being melted at high temperature in a melting furnace, the molten glass flows continuously from the pool kiln and floats on the surface of the metal tin liquid, forming a glass strip with uniform thickness and fire polishing. After cooling and hardening, it is separated from the metal liquid and then annealed and cut.

Key Features:

• Thickness: 8mm and 10mm clear float glass have a thickness of 8mm and 10mm respectively, which makes them widely used in building doors and windows, interior partitions and other fields.
• Light transmittance: White glass has high light transmittance, can provide a clear view, and is suitable for occasions that require high perspective. However, compared with ultra-clear glass, its light transmittance is slightly lower, but it can still meet most needs in daily use.
• Strength: It can meet the needs of daily use. Its moderate thickness makes it not easy to break when subjected to slight impact, ensuring safety and reliability in daily use.
• Weather resistance: Whether it is hot summer or cold winter, this material can maintain good physical properties and is not easily deformed or damaged due to temperature changes.
• Wide application: Not only suitable for doors and windows of residential and commercial buildings, but also commonly used in interior partitions, furniture manufacturing and automotive industries.

3. Applications:

• Car window glass: 8mm and 10mm ordinary white glass can be used for the side windows and rear windows of cars, although modern cars use more tempered or laminated glass to improve safety.
• Door and window installation: 8mm and 10mm ordinary white glass are often used in building doors and windows due to their moderate thickness and good light transmittance, which can not only meet the lighting needs but also ensure a certain degree of privacy.
• Indoor partitions: In public places such as offices and shopping malls, these two thicknesses of glass are also often used as indoor partition materials, which are both beautiful and practical.
• Furniture manufacturing: Ordinary white glass can be used to make various furniture, such as glass tabletops, coffee tables, etc. Its smooth surface and transparent texture can enhance the overall beauty of furniture.
• Decorations: Due to its high transparency and easy processing, this type of glass is also widely used to make various decorations, such as lamps and artworks.
• Guardrails: In some occasions where transparent protection is required, such as stair handrails or balcony railings, 8mm and 10mm glass can provide necessary protection without blocking the view.
