Instructions for purchasing wired fireproof glass



Wired fireproof glass is a composite glass body made by adding metal wires and mesh to the interlayer of organic film or inorganic adhesive between two layers of glass. After adding wire or mesh, it can only improve the overall impact strength of fire-resistant glass, and can be connected with electric heating and safety alarm systems to play a variety of functions. The only defect of this fireproof glass is poor transparency, Glass product   .

When choosing wired glass, these points should be clearly distinguished



There are many types of safety glass, and wire glass is one of them. As the name suggests, wired glass refers to glass with wires inside, while also ensuring privacy. As a powerful and highly attractive material, it often appears in our design projects. Today, let's take a look at what wired glass is with Guangzhou Haibo Special Glass.




Wired glass (also known as shatterproof glass or metal wire glass) is a special type of glass formed by pressing multiple intermediate films or metal or wire patterns into a semi liquid glass strip using a rolling production process when ordinary flat glass is heated to a red heat softening state



The styles of wired glass are also diverse and diverse



Shapes such as embossed wire, polished wire, and colored wire glass can be customized according to different color patterns, including flat wire, wavy wire, and groove wire



The common specification thickness is 6-16mm, which does not include the thickness of the intermediate fine wire



Production Process of Wired Glass



The metal wire mesh rolled by the rolling method is unfolded by the mesh supply device and sent to the molten glass liquid. With the glass liquid, it passes through the upper and lower rolling rollers and is then made into sandwich glass



Therefore, compared to flat glass, it is more resistant to impact and only forms radial cracks when impacted, without shattering into slag




Characteristics of Wired Glass



Wired glass has strong decorative properties, customized with customer favorite pattern styles and colors, making it aesthetically pleasing



Security



The impact strength of wired glass is 5-10 times that of ordinary glass. When subjected to external pressure and violent impact, wired glass also has radial cracks that do not break into slag



Fire resistance



The temperature difference that can be withstood is three times that of ordinary glass, and it can withstand a temperature difference of 300 ℃. Although glass with wire mesh may explode in a fire




But wires or nets can also support fragments and maintain integrity to a considerable extent, preventing the flow of air and preventing the spread of smoke, which has a good deterrent effect on the spread of fire



matters needing attention



1. Transportation: During transportation, glass should not be placed flat or tilted, and the length direction should be the same as the direction of vehicle transportation, and attention should be paid to rain and moisture prevention. After being transported to the construction site, if not used temporarily, it needs to be erected and placed on A-shaped shelves, and stored indoors in a dry place. Attention should be paid not only to transportation, but also to the installation site during design, which should be easy to quickly drain rainwater.



2. Rust prevention: The surface of the wire mesh of laminated glass is specially treated and generally not prone to rusting. The cuttable part is in an untreated state, so it can sometimes rust when exposed to water.




3. When installing: Use a four sided framing method, and high-quality sealing materials should be used to fill the gap between the glass and the frame. It is recommended to use silicone rubber or polysulfide rubber sealing materials.



4. Pay attention to stitching: Install the large surface
