Stable performance – Thanks to Schott Robax ceramic glass
Schott Robax is a ceramic glass rated for near-zero thermal expansion, which reduces dimensional change when heated. That material property lowers mechanical stress during rapid temperature swings.
Reduced risk of cracking during normal stove cycles extends the working life of the viewing window. Less frequent replacements are likely compared with ordinary glass.
High heat tolerance – With a 760°C-plus temperature rating
Panel is specified to withstand temperatures in excess of 760°C, indicating suitability for intense combustion conditions. The rating reflects the material's capacity to remain stable at high operating temperatures.
Reliable performance during heavy burns keeps the stove safe and usable without glazing failure. Heat containment remains effective under demanding use.
Slim, accurate fit – With 4mm thickness and rectangular dimensions
Panel measures 4mm in thickness and matches the rectangular dimensions of 203mm x 168mm noted in the product name. Size and profile align with the original glass used on compatible models.
Straightforward replacement into existing frames reduces installation fuss and the need for frame modification. Neat fit helps maintain door seals and stove efficiency.
