Tempered Glass
Thin Tempered Glass / Thin Light
Thanks to heat‑treatment, Shin Light has extremely high strength. The hard type (3.2 mm) achieves approximately the same strength as 6 mm annealed glass. The soft type also has about twice the strength of untreated glass and is effective in preventing thermal breakage.
When the hard type breaks, it crumbles into small fragments, helping to reduce secondary damage from broken glass. The soft type breaks into larger fragments than the hard type. Please select according to the required performance and application.
Using Shin Light in insulating glass makes it possible to improve thermal insulation without changing the overall thickness.

- Cutting or processing after manufacture is not possible. Please specify dimensions and shapes accurately when ordering.
- Shin Light is different from tempered glass defined in JIS R3205 / R3211 and cannot bear the JIS mark.
- Please also refer to the precautions for Tough Seifer and HS Seifer.
