Does Ultra-Clear Glass Affect Aluminum Door Performance? Data-Backed Analysis
Ultra-clear glass is a premium choice for aluminum doors, favored for its high transparency. Many users worry about performance trade-offs, but Foshan Hannoverwindow’s test data proves it enhances aesthetics without compromising core functions.
1. Light Transmittance: Upgrade Aesthetics Without Performance Loss
Ultra-clear glass has a light transmittance of 91.5%-92%, 7%-8% higher than ordinary clear glass (84%-85%). It retains the same base material as tempered glass, with no impact on structural stability—tempered ultra-clear glass has a bending strength ≥150MPa, identical to standard tempered glass.
2. Core Performance: Equal or Superior to Ordinary Glass
In sound insulation and thermal insulation, ultra-clear glass matches or exceeds ordinary glass when paired with hollow structures. A 6mm+12Ar+6mm ultra-clear hollow configuration reduces noise by 38dB, with a U-value ≤1.8 W/(m²·K), 5% better than ordinary hollow glass.
3. Durability: Consistent with Aluminum Door Longevity
Ultra-clear glass undergoes the same tempering and coating processes, passing 1000-hour UV resistance tests (transmittance attenuation ≤2%). It resists scratches and corrosion, with a service life of 20+ years, perfectly matching aluminum door durability.
