The Safety and Stronger Benefit of Custom Tempered Glass for Your Automobile

The Safety and Stronger Benefit of Custom Tempered Glass for Your AutomobileWhile car manufacturers use the same safety guidelines and feature criteria to make each model of car, no two automobiles are created exactly the equal. There could be manufacturing flaws in one that there isn’t in another. Or quality control may have been a little slack that day. Either way, there’s no guarantee that one car is safer than another when you pull it off the showroom floor. Some safety features, like custom tempered glass, are similar across all vehicles. It’s a stronger, safer glass that protects Lynnwood drivers and passengers from cuts and other injuries during accidents.

However, while custom tempered glass is safer than classic glass for automobiles, it can still crack, splinter, and shatter. The difference between custom tempered and classic glass is the tensile pressure. It has five times the strength and flex of traditional anneal glass. Where an automobile’s classic glass shatters into jagged shards, custom tempered breaks into smooth-edged geometric pieces. These smaller disintegrations are less likely to cause serious injuries in the event of a crash.

When all is done, and the accident is over, custom tempered glass needs to be repaired and replaced for returned strength and integrity.
