OEM (or original equipment manufacturer) auto glass has the advantage of being pretty much identical to your car's original windshield, so there's no need to worry about the overall look of your car after a replacement.
In 1928, Pittsburgh Plate Glass introduced an economical version of laminated glass. The first financially successful U.S. plate glass manufacturer called their product Duplate.
Statistics show that an average of 75% of windshield replacements could have been prevented had the owner taken the time to get a chip repaired before it grew into a crack.
Many vehicles have a rear window defroster, sensor or other technology installed. When repairing or reinstalling a rear window with these technologies, our expert staff can work around it and make sure that everything works once a repair or reinstall is complete.
So how exactly does windshield glass not shatter during a collision? It’s specifically designed (through a process of laminating glass with a transparent piece of plastic) to take impact without shattering, thereby protecting the vehicle’s occupants.
Windshields, as their name implies, shield you from wind. But did you know they also support airbag function and protection from debris and the elements?
The glass windshields we know today were first used in 1905 when safety glass was invented. This special type of glass goes through a tempering process to make it more durable and resistant to shattering.
While most automotive manufacturers purchased glass from factories such as Libbey-Owens and Pittsburgh Plate Glass, the Ford Co. produced most of the glass used in its automobiles until the mid-1930s.
While many salvage yards offer windshields in good condition at a good price, we do not recommend installing one. There may be microscopic cracks that will become major problems later, or an incorrect installation can bring a failed vehicle inspection, forcing you to install a new windshield anyway.
The Ford Model T was advertised for $850 in 1908, but this price did not include a windshield. Windshields and other optional items such as headlights and speedometers cost about $100 extra.
Did you know that there are three main kinds of dings common in windshields? These include star, bull’s eye, and combination dents.
You know that windshields are the most important piece of glass in your vehicle. But they used to be a luxury – they were a purchased option, and if you couldn’t afford it you wore goggles and scarves when you drove.
