What shows up in flat & sheet glass
- Annealed float in 1/8" through 3/4" (3–19 mm), clear and tinted
- Tempered lites cut to a specific job size that never got installed
- Laminated glass with PVB or ionoplast interlayers, including leftover security and acoustic makeups
- Low-iron (Starphire, Optiwhite, UltraClear and equivalents) where a project changed glass spec mid-stream
- Wired and patterned glass, usually from renovation and stock cleanouts
Before you buy
Surplus is only a bargain if it fits and it's documented. These are the questions worth asking on this category specifically.
- Tempered glass cannot be cut, drilled, or edged after heat treatment — the size you see is the only size you get
- Annealed glass can be cut down, so oversized annealed stock is often a better buy than an exact-size tempered lite
- Confirm edgework: clean-cut, seamed, flat-polished, and pencil-polished are not interchangeable for exposed applications
- Look for the tempering bug (permanent safety marking) if the application requires safety glazing
- Ask about roller wave and bow on heat-treated lites if the glass is going somewhere visually sensitive
- Laminated stock can delaminate at the edges if it was stored wet — ask how it was stacked and covered
Common questions
Can tempered glass be cut down to size?
No. Tempering puts the surface in compression and the core in tension, and any cut, drill, or grind releases that stress and shatters the lite. If you need a specific size, either buy tempered already at that dimension or buy annealed glass and have it cut and then tempered.
Is overstock glass safe to use on a permitted job?
It can be, but the paperwork matters as much as the glass. Safety glazing locations need a permanent label, and fire-rated or impact-rated applications need product approvals tied to a tested assembly. Ask the seller for the original documentation before you commit.
