Wired glass
Also called broken glass. It is made by heating ordinary flat glass to a state of red-hot softening, and then pressing the preheated iron wire or barbed wire into the middle of the glass. It is characterized by superior fire resistance, which can shield the flame, and does not crack when burning at high temperature. There's also theft-proofing, glass cuts and barbed wire barriers. Mainly used for roof skylight, balcony window. Also known as fireproof glass.

Fire retardancy
Even if the glass is broken, threads or nets can hold the debris, making it difficult to fall and break. Even when the flame is broken through, it can block the invasion of the flame and fire powder, and prevent spreading and burning from the opening.
Fire doors are regulated under article 64 of the Japanese building standards act. The opening of the outer wall must prevent the flame from spreading and burning. The use of wire glass and the frame of the b fire door can be used as the b fire materials.

Wired glass prevents debris from flying away. Even when the external pressure, such as earthquake, storm and impact, makes glass broken, it is difficult for debris to disperse, so it is not easy to cause debris to disperse and injure people compared with ordinary glass.
Wired Glass
Ordinary glass breaks easily, so thieves can sneak in to do illegal activities, while wired glass does not. Even if the glass is broken, a wire mesh is still in place, so thieves can't steal easily. This kind of guard against theft of filamentary glass, brought safety sense to people mentally.
 
 
As there are metal wires or nets inside the glass body, the integrity of the glass has been greatly improved. When the damage to avoid the whole collapse, so a certain fire protection and safety effect. The disadvantage of wired glass is that it has poor fluoroscopy, because there is wire mesh in it, which will disturb the visual effect to a certain extent, and the exposed metal wire at the edge of glass is easy to be corroded. The safety of wire clip and mesh glass is reflected in the integrity of the destruction, and the glass fragments will not disperse under the wire pull, which reduces the damage to human body. It can be used on skylights, roofs, indoor partitions and other occasions where debris can cause injury. In addition, because clip screen glass is not easy to penetrate, glass for doors and Windows also have a certain role in guarding against theft. Sandwich glass can also be used as second-class fireproofing materials for doors and Windows. Common glass is prone to break and fall in a fire, causing air to flow and fire to spread. Although the glass with wire mesh is blown apart in the fire, it will not be broken through due to the support of metal wire or net, which can maintain integrity to a considerable extent, prevent the air flow, and have a good resistance to the fire spread. The wire clip and mesh glass are also suitable for seismic protection, such as buildings with higher requirements for seismic protection and buildings with industrial vibration. As a kind of building glass with low price and wide application, wire and net glass improves the fragile property of flat glass.
