loat Glass is a sheet of glass made by floating molten glass on a bed of molten metal, typically tin, although lead and various low melting point alloys were used in the past. This method gives the sheet uniform thickness and very flat surfaces. Modernwindows are made from float glass. Most float glass is soda-lime glass, but relatively minor quantities of specialty borosilicate and flat panel display glass are also produced using the float glass process.
Specifications:
Thickness:1.1mm,2mm,3mm,4mm,5mm,6mm,8mm,10mm,12mm,15mm,19mm
