Most commonly a vehicle will be made with tempered glass for its windows except for the windshield. As tempered glass is more prone to shattering, the windshield is usually made from laminated glass, which makes it shatter proof and allows it to withstand more impact. Windshield glass is made laminated so that it prevents the breakage from stones, rocks, and other potentially damaging objects. Laminated glass is essentially just two pieces of thinner tempered glass that are fused to an inner rubber layer.

The windshield of your vehicle is meant to withstand some impact of foreign objects that may kick up on the road. It is stronger than the glass of your other windows because it needs to be able to the block the driver and front passengers from debris. When your vehicle’s windshield has been severely compromised by a rock or another hard object, it is definitely important to get your windshield replaced. Windshield replacement is made easy by the experienced technicians at Wind Auto Glass

Having intact windows is crucial for the safety of the vehicle and absolutely necessary for the protection of its occupants. Even if you have the smallest crack or chip in your windows, if the vehicle is moving and going over bumps in the road, that window could break at any moment.
