It's 400 degree F thermel shock rating is high enough for use in glass fireplace screens and doors. FireplaceDoorsOnline.com recommends a clearance of at least 4 to 6 inches between glass surfaces and fireplace grates. It is also suitable for any other application that calls for added safety and strength of tempered glass.
