LX-57B X-Ray shielding lead glass offers excellent radiation protection and superb visual clarity. The polished surfaces are scratch resistant and LX-57B does not discolor due to radiation. LX-57B X-Ray shielding glass comes in three thicknesses. KEY FEATURES High quality optical grade lead barium type X-Ray lead glass Contains over 60% heavy metal oxide, including at least 55% PbO Surfaces are mirror polished Excellent for use in medical facilities, laboratories, airports, and screens for radiation Available in 3 thicknesses, LX7 (7 mm) is used in most X-Ray radiation applications, LX9 (9 mm) and LX15 (15 mm) are used in cancer fluoroscopic treatment, etc. LX7 may be installed in a double assembly for greater protection. Please call for further details. Note: For applications requiring safety-impact resistant glazing, LX-57B is available with a surface applied film and in a laminated configuration. Surface Hardness LX-57B glass surfaces are mirror polished. Using Moh's hardness scale, LX-57B tests at Level 6 (comparable to feldspar, a constituent of granite). Acrylic tests at Level 3 (equivalent to calcite, a constituent of limestone and chalk). AVAILABILITY Please check with TGP for availability and lead time.
Fireframes® Aluminum Series combined with Pilkington Pyrostop® glass, provides a barrier to radiant and conductive heat transfer. The narrow aluminum profiles allow unlimited areas of glazing in fire separations.

Powder coating and other anodized finishes are available Door hardware available to fit functional requirements. Check with TGP for compatibility Designed for interior use. For exterior applications, please see Fireframes Curtainwall Series Passes wall assembly test standard UL 263 / ASTM E119 for 60 and 120 minute ratings
Neoceram is a transparent low-expansion glass-ceramic with a number of outstanding features that include high resistance to thermal shock, high mechanical strength, and excellent electrical characteristics. With an almost zero thermal expansion coefficient, the applications for Neoceram continue to grow. Trusted for over 30 years, Neoceram now features a smoother, texture-free surface with less visible color. KEY FEATURES Withstands continuous temperatures to 1292°F Sheet size of 44" x 78" (silica coated) Available in a wide variety of shapes and sizes including bent and curved configurations Free of arsenic and heavy metals Thermal shock resistant Superior heat resistance (nearly three times that of tempered glass) Improved surface quality and color Available in clear and black Available in 3 mm and 5 mm thickness Can be cut with regular glass cutters for immediate customer service Available with mirrored and colored options (ceramic frit) CLOSE SHAPES Neoceram is available in a wide array of glass configurations to complement your hearth designs including flat, single bent, double bent and curved. The images shown here are only a sample of possible designs and applications. Contact TGP with your design criteria for a custom solution. Note: These are custom made options for OEM's and have minimum quantity requirements.
Pro-GR lead shielding glass was developed to protect against high radiation gamma rays used in PET scan facilities. Pro-GR is made of glass materials having a lead oxide content rate of roughly 70% that is equivalent to ultra-high lead content block glass for nuclear power facilities. Pro-GR has a radiation shielding capability higher than that of conventional LX-57B. KEY FEATURES Comprised of glass materials having a lead oxide content rate of roughly 70% Equivalent to ultra-high lead content block glass for nuclear power facilities Available in two thicknesses, LX 14.7 (14.7 mm) and LX 21.8 (21.8 mm) Pro-GR has a radiation shielding capability higher than LX-57B X-Ray shielding lead glass APPLICATIONS Ideal for use in PET Scan facilities. STATISTICS Shielding Performance Against Gamma Rays In calculating the shielding performance of Pro-GR against 0.511 MeV gamma rays, the Monte Carlo simulation is used to calculate the build-up factor of Pro-GR glass, and calculates the effective dose transmission factor in accordance with the Manual for Shielding Calculation of Radiation Facilities, 2000 (issued by the Nuclear Safety Technology Center). In calculating the lead equivalent of Pro-GR, the thickness of Pro-GR was designed so that the effective dose transmission factor is equivalent to the effective dose transmission factor of lead calculated by taking the build-up factor into account as shown in the following table.
Fireframes® Heat Barrier Series doors and frames combined with Pilkington Pyrostop® glass, provides a barrier to radiant and conductive heat transfer. The system also allows full-lite fire doors for aesthetic or security reasons. KEY FEATURES Fire ratings of 60-120 minutes with required hose stream test Narrow steel profiles Full-lite doors available in single leafor double leaf design Modular system that can incorporate 60/90 minute full-lite temperature rise doors Can incorporate large individual panes of Pilkington Pyrostop® fire-resistive-rated glass, comprised of Pilkington Optiwhite ™ glass and clear intumescent layers Frames supplied "K-D" (knock-down)ready for installation or welded depending on application Unrestricted glazing area for use in locations where total glazing exceeds 25% of wall area Durable steel frames ensure low maintenance system Door hardware available to fit functional requirements. Check with TGP for compatibility Finish painted at the factory to match desired color scheme Easy installation similar to typical storefront systems Passes wall assembly test standard UL263 / ASTM E-119 for 60 and 120 minute ratings
