Glass Types by Temperature (Quick Guide)
Different applications need different heat resistance. We can help you select the right material based on your working temperature:
- Borosilicate Glass: Up to 450°C (842°F). Excellent for chemical resistance and thermal shock.
- Aluminosilicate Glass: Up to 600°C (1112°F). High mechanical strength and pressure resistance.
- Ceramic Glass (Black/Transparent): Up to 800°C (1472°F). Near-zero thermal expansion, perfect for direct flame contact.
- Quartz Glass: Up to 1200°C (2192°F). Extreme heat resistance and high UV/IR transparency.
