FLOAT GLASS
Le-Gardien
is able to supply quality float glass from major float glass manufacturers around the
world.
During the process, molten glass is introduced to a molten tin bath.
The molten glass floats on the tin and spreads out thus seeking a controlled level.
Control heating will then allows the glass to flow and form a float ribbon of uniform
thickness while on the tin bath. Glass is then slowly cooled and fed off from the molten
tin into the annealing lehr for further cooling. The glass thickness varies by changing
the speed at which the glass ribbon moves into the annealing lehr.
Characteristics
High light transmission & optical clarity
Can be further fabricated into reflective, Low-E, laminated, security,
insulated, heat-treated & ceramic decorated glass
May be specified against using toughened glass in certain wind load
areas where glass surface optics are critical
