Tempered Clear Float Glass from China Suppliers - High-Quality Factory Direct Products

Clear float glass, produced by reputable suppliers and manufacturers in China, offers a wide range of thicknesses from 2mm to 25mm, with common specifications including 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, and 12mm. This versatile glass is typically available in a standard size of 2440mm x 3660mm, though custom sizes can be tailored to meet specific project requirements, With a light transmittance of ≥89% for 3mm thickness, this clear float glass ensures optimal visibility and brightness. It is colorless and transparent, featuring a slight green tint at the edges due to higher iron content. The product has a density of approximately 2.5 g/cm³ and a refractive index of around 1.52, making it ideal for various applications, Manufactured with a softening temperature of about 720°C and a thermal expansion coefficient of 8.5–9.5 × 10⁻⁶/°C from 20°C to 300°C, this glass exhibits good thermal and mechanical properties. Its bending strength ranges from 40–50 MPa, while the compressive strength lies between 800–1000 MPa, The chemical composition primarily consists of SiO₂ (~72%), along with Na₂O, CaO, MgO, and trace amounts of Fe₂O₃ that contribute to the green tint. Surface quality is vital; therefore, our clear float glass is smooth and flat, free from significant waves, bubbles, or impurities, adhering to the GB 11614-2009 standard, Applications of this premium clear float glass include windows, doors, curtain walls, furniture, decorations, and various architectural uses. Trust in the quality and reliability of clear float glass produced by suppliers and factories in China for all your building and design needs

    Frequently Asked Questions

    1. What is the manufacturing process for clear float glass?
    Clear float glass is produced using the float process, where molten soda-lime silicate glass is formed on a tin bath to ensure perfectly flat and smooth surfaces.
    2. Why does the glass have a slight green tint on the edges?
    The slight green tint visible at the edges is a natural characteristic caused by the presence of iron ions in the raw materials used during production.
    3. What are the standard and maximum sizes available?
    The standard sheet size is 2440×3660mm. However, we offer customization with a maximum size capability of up to 3300×6000mm.
    4. Which thicknesses are most commonly used in projects?
    While we offer a range from 2mm to 25mm, the most frequently utilized thicknesses are 3mm, 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, and 10mm.
    5. What is the density of the clear float glass material?
    The material density for this clear float glass is 2.5g/cm³, providing a standard weight-to-volume ratio for construction and industrial applications.
    6. Is clear float glass completely colorless?
    It is designed to be colorless and transparent for maximum light transmission, though the thickness and iron content may cause a subtle tint at the edges.
