Advantages And Disadvantages Of Wired Glass

Wired glass also calls shatterproof glass and mesh wire glass.Wire glass has the advantages of fire resistance, safety and anti - theft.

Wired glass is a special kind of float glass formed by pressing wire mesh into semi - liquid glass belt in calendering process.Compared with ordinary sheet glass, wired glass has its different advantages.

The wired glass is produced by heating the flat glass to a red heat softening state, and then pressing the preheated iron wire or wire mesh into the middle of the float glass. The characteristic of the wired glass is that it is superior in fire resistance, can block the flame, does not burst when burning at high temperature, and does not cause debris to be wounded when broken. In addition, the wired glass has anti-theft performance, and the glass is broken and barbed wire is blocked. Wired glass is mainly used in curtain walls glass, partitions glass, sheds glass, doors and windows glass.

Advantage

The wire glass is stronger than ordinary glass. When the sheet glass is subjected to impact or temperature change, it will be broken without breaking, cracking and not scattering, and avoiding small pieces of angular flies flying out of the wound. If the fire spreads, the wire glass is hot-blasted. It can still maintain a fixed state and play a role in isolating the fire. It is also called a wire-fired glass.

Disadvantage

During the production process of the wire glass, the wire mesh is easily oxidized by high-temperature radiation, and yellow and bubbles like "rust spots" may appear on the glass surface. Wired glass is commonly used for curtain wall partitions, ceilings, and doors and windows that are subject to vibration.

Wired glass requires that the coefficient of thermal expansion of the wire is close to that of the sheet glass, it is difficult to chemically react with the flat glass, has high mechanical strength and certain magnetic properties, and the surface is clean and free of oil.

The thickness of the wired glass is generally above 5 mm, and the varieties include embossed wire, polished wire and colored wire glass. The shape has a flat wire, a corrugated wire and a trough wire.

Wired glass is a kind of anti-plate glass made by embedding a wire or a metal mesh in a glass plate. It is only used to form a radial crack when impacted, so it is not used for splashing,buildings and turbulent buildings.
