Can glass transfer heat?
Yes. Just fill a glass with hot water and feel.
We have a 3/8" thick glass coffee table top which we want to shorten. We are told if the glass is tempered- no can do. True any way to tell if a piece of glassis tempered?
You can not cut tempered glass because once a piece is broken the whole glass shatters. Tempered glass is safer because it breaks into tiny pieces rather than sharp edges like regular glass. The only way to tell if a glass is tempered is to break the glass or use a polarizer to detect stress waves. You will see stress waves in tempered glass verses regular glass. Hope this helps.
Which of these materials transfer heat energy slowest metal glass plastic wood?
Wood.
How does heat and light interact with clear or colorless materials?
Infrared light (the invisible light emitted from heat) doesn't pass through regular tempered glass like visible light, it might pass through other clear materials tho including some types of glass, it depends on the material.

What is the Difference between herculite tempered glass and herculite tempered safety glass?
Herculite tempered glass is a type of tempered glass that has been processed to increase its strength and safety. Herculite tempered safety glass is a specific brand of tempered safety glass known for its durability and resistance to impact. The main difference is that Herculite tempered safety glass is a branded version of tempered safety glass, possibly with additional features or specifications.
What is the difference between Tempered Glass and Annealed Glass and which one is better?
Tempering is the process to add properties to the raw glass and to make it Standard or Toughened. If tempered (Heated) and cooled slowly, it becomes standard glass on the other hand if tempered and cooled rapidly, it gains different properties and becomes tough or is called toughened glass. Check the link below.
How can you easily tell tempered glass from regular glass without breaking it?
Ok usually tempered glass has a etched stamp in one corner of the glass, that tells you it is a safety rated glass, if it does not it may have a more ripplely reflection, because it is heat tempered . Sometimes you cant tell till you try and cut it and it shatters in a million tiny pieces.
Can i cut or drill a hole in laminated and tempered glass?
Laminated glass and tempered glass are not necessarily the same thing. Tempered glass cannot be drilled, but untempered laminated glass could (probably) be drilled. Holes in tempered glass are drilled before tempering.
Can a hot pan set on tempered glass?

Can glass transfer heat?

How do you determine tempered glass or not?
To determine if glass is tempered, look for a manufacturer's stamp or mark indicating it is tempered. Tempered glass is also stronger and shatters into small, blunt pieces when broken. If you can't find any markings, consult with a professional or use a polarized lens filter to check for any stress patterns, which are typical in tempered glass.
