Standard Auto Glass:
Vehicle glass has always been the weakest link when it comes to protecting any passenger vehicle.
All automotive side and rear glass safety standards are set by the Federal Government. These standards call for all side and rear glass to, when broken, not break into shards that have dangerously sharp edges that can injure passengers. Standards call for tempered glass to be used for side and rear windows. Tempered glass is plate glass that has been heated to a high temperature and then quenched quickly in oil. Tempered glass breaks into small round pebbles with no sharp edges, However this does not provide any protection for the vehicle occupants except from the weather!
LTA Glass: is standard 5/32 auto glass backed with thin layers of polycarbonate that are bonded to the inside of the vehicle glass with polyurethane bonding interlayers.
