details & specifications
Neoceram ® & Pyroceram ®
Today's high efficiency stoves and fireplaces produce intense heat.
Ordinary tempered glass withstands temperatures up to approximately
500° F, however higher levels of heat may cause it to crack, shatter
or explode.
With the transparency of glass and the heat-resistant
characteristics of ceramic, ceramic products like Neoceram®
& Pyroceram® can
tolerate continuous temperatures up to 1292° F - nearly three times
the heat resistance of tempered glass. These products also
have almost a zero thermal expansion making them an excellent choice
for applications when there is the probability of high heat and cold
shock. Choice of product may be determined by required size.

resistant products -
Tempered Glass - 1/8", 3/16",1/4", 3/8",1/2", & 3/4" thickness
Borosilicate - 1/8", 3/16",1/4" thickness
Mica - a fire proof, infusible, incombustible and non- flammable and
can resist temperatures of 600-C to 900-C,depending on the type of
mica. It has low heat conductivity, excellent thermal stability and
may be exposed to high temperatures without noticeable effect.
.003-.005" thickness
Fiberglass Gasketing material
products are fire-protection & impact-safety
rated & intended for use in safety-rated locations such as door
lites, transoms or side lites, and windows with fire-rating
requirements up to 90 minutes (up to 180 minutes in doors).
PYRAN® Platinum F is a specially
floated glass-ceramic with surface applied 3M Scotchshield* Ultra
Film, and PYRAN® Platinum L is
a laminated specially floated glass-ceramic. Gaskets are used with glass
- fitting between the glass and the metal parts
