What is 12mm flat clear Tempered Glass?
Flat glass is a flat glass made by float forming process. Its production process involves pouring molten glass liquid on the surface of liquid tin to form a flat and continuous glass ribbon, and then annealing and cutting to obtain transparent and colorless flat glass. Tempered glass is obtained by heating ordinary glass to near the softening point and then cooling it quickly and evenly. This process forms compressive stress on the glass surface, thereby improving the strength and safety of the glass. Float tempered glass is first made into float glass and then tempered to obtain a high-strength and high-safety flat glass.
Characteristics of 12mm flat clear Tempered Glass
- Strength: The strength is significantly improved through a special heat treatment process, so tempered glass has strong impact resistance and heavy load resistance, providing better reliable performance guarantee.
- Safety: Compared with the sharp fragments formed by ordinary glass when broken, the risk of injury to the human body is greatly reduced.
- Non-reprocessability: Once the flat tempered glass is tempered, it cannot be cut, grinded or otherwise processed, otherwise the uniform compressive stress balance will be destroyed and the glass will be “broken into pieces”. Therefore, the glass needs to be processed to the required shape and size before tempering.
- Strong chemical stability: Flat tempered glass has high chemical stability and generally has strong resistance to acids, alkalis, salts, chemical reagents and gases.
- Customizability: Tempered glass can be manufactured in various sizes, shapes, and thicknesses, making it versatile for use in different architectural, industrial, and household settings.
Applications of 12mm flat clear Tempered Glass
- Art glass: Flat tempered glass can be made into various art glasses through special process treatment for decoration and beautification.
- Indoor partition: Tempered glass has a smooth and transparent surface, which can enhance the visual effect of the space, making the interior appear more spacious and brighter. It also has a long service life and is not easily affected by impact and wear in daily use, reducing the frequency of maintenance and replacement.
- Metro and high-speed rail carriage windows: Flat tempered glass is used for windows in subway and high-speed rail carriages to ensure the safety and comfort of passengers.
- Display screen protection layer: In electronic products such as smartphones and tablets, flat tempered glass is used as a protective layer for the display screen to prevent scratches and breakage.
- Touch screen: Many modern touch screen devices use flat tempered glass to provide high sensitivity and durability.
- Furniture panels: Flat tempered glass is used to make panels for various furniture, such as dining tables, coffee tables, etc., which are both beautiful and practical.
- Bulletproof glass: In some special occasions, such as military facilities and important institutions, flat tempered glass can be used as part of bulletproof glass to provide additional security.

In summary, 12mm flat transparent tempered glass has significant advantages as a railing material. It not only has a high degree of safety and durability, but also has excellent optical performance and aesthetics. This kind of tempered glass can quickly disperse stress when subjected to external impact, greatly reducing the risk of breakage. Even if it breaks, its fragments will appear in a state of small particles without sharp angles, thus effectively avoiding harm to the human body. In addition, the thickness of 12mm ensures its stability and reliability in various application scenarios, whether it is a home balcony, stair handrails or protective railings in public places, it can provide solid safety protection.
