This makes it approximately 4-5 times stronger than standard annealed glass of the same thickness, and means it breaks into small blunt fragments rather than sharp dangerous shards. This is the standard safety glass specified for balustrades, juliet balconies and other public-facing fall-protection applications under UK Building Regulations Part K. Note: toughened glass cannot be cut, drilled or modified after toughening - any holes or cut-outs must be specified before the toughening process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eInfill panels in steel or aluminium framed balustrades, low-level safety glazing, internal partitions and screens, and decorative or privacy glazing where Class 1 safety glass is required.
