Replacement fire glass that has been thermally toughened The thermally toughened replacement glass is an excellent choice when your windows are in desperate need of replacement glass. This glass is ideal for protecting windows from flame, smoke, and gases. Tempered glass, also known as tempered safety glass, has been heat treated to be up to four times stronger and more durable than normal glass that is annealed. This process changes the way that glass breaks by causing it to tense and expand, making it more resistant to breaking. This alters the pattern of breakage of the glass to ensure that it breaks into smaller pieces rather than sharp angles. This reduces the chance of injury. It is recommended for areas that are not likely to be constantly heated and is the most secure alternative to ceramic glass, which is more likely to shatter into large pieces. Ceramic glass is a different kind of glass used for fireplaces or wood stoves. It is a transparent ceramic material that can withstand temperatures as high as 1256 F (PyroCeram (r)) and 1470 F (NeoCeram (r)). Because it can withstand high temperatures, it's the most secure option when it comes to replacing broken glass in your fireplace doors. Ceramic glass is more costly than tempered glass but is more durable and less likely to break when exposed to high temperatures. It is the best option for wood stoves and fireplaces that are situated at least 6 inches away from the flame, as it doesn't break easily when exposed to high temperatures. The kind of glass you choose will depend on a variety of factors, including the location where it will be placed and how close it is to the flame and whether you have pets or children.
