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.

Why tempered glass explode?
The most common reason why glass explodes is that it is subjected to an extreme but uneven temperature change; if you heat up one side of a piece of glass faster than the other side, you get uneven thermal expansion, which then causes great stress in the glass, which can make it explode. Just placing a hot frying pan on a piece of glass can have that effect. Gunfire can also make glass explode. Shockwaves from explosions can make glass explode. So if you live in a war zone, you are at an increased risk of having your glass explode.
