Typical Glass Thickness

Ask an ExpertDifferent types and thicknesses of glass have different strengths and other performance factors that determine the minimal size of base or bases. If you're purchasing a glass tabletop from a glass dealer, follow their recommendations for supporting the glass, and be sure to discuss how many bases or support pieces you'll have — to learn how far the glass can span between supports. If you already own a glass top and don't know whether the glass is tempered, annealed or otherwise designed for strength and safety, err on the side of caution and support the glass as much as possible. Standard glass is relatively weak and can break into large shards, posing a significant safety risk.
