Q. What are the basic edge finishes to a piece of glass?

• Arrissed Edge – The sharp edges are machined, not a finished edge, suitable for glazing or handling purposes or to reduce the risk of thermal fracture in annealed glass.
• Smoothed Edge – The edge of the glass is machined flat and the edges arrissed but not polished.
• Polished Edge – The edge of the glass is machined flat, the edges arrissed and the edge is polished.
• Bevel - The face surface of the glass is ground way and polished to various widths and thickness at the edge. Unless the thickness at the edge is specified, it will be to our normal setting.
• Other “special” edges can also be produced on thick glass, please phone for details

 

Q. Can you polish or bevel shapes?

A. Shapes can be bevelled and polished. Internal radii must exceed the minimum radius for the type of machine the glass is being worked on. Submit details of the shape required.

  

Q. Can you cut a shape from a .dxf file emailed to you?
