TempaFloat is thermally toughened safety glass manufactured by Metro Performance Glass.
Safety
In the unlikely event of TempaFloat breaking, it fractures into small particles, significantly reducing the risk of injury. TempaFloat is a Grade A Safety Glass in accordance with NZS 4223: Part 3 and AS/NZS 2208 "Safety glazing materials in buildings".
Strength
TempaFloat has high mechanical strength and is 4 to 5 times stronger than annealed glass of the same thickness due to the stresses induced during toughening. It also has high thermal strength when compared with annealed glass and can withstand a temperature differential of 250 degrees C. It is stable in temperatures ranging from -70 degrees C to 300 degrees C.
Mechanical Fixing
TempaFloat has high mechanical strength so can be used with mechanical fixings such as patch, spider, hinge, disc, point and countersunk fixing.
