Spontaneous Breakage

The Dangers of Unstable Tempered Glass

Tempered glass is used in interior applications such as balconies, banisters, guard rails, shower doors, elevators, and other areas where required by code. It can contain impurities like Nickel Sulfide inclusions. When tempered glass expands and contracts during daily and seasonal temperature cycles, it is subject to stresses that can cause it to explode.
