Low-E Coated Float Glass Sheet 6mm Thick 1m² from Japan

This is float glass that has been surface polished and coated with a low-emissivity (low-E) layer to reflect infrared light while maintaining transparency, used primarily for energy-efficient windows. It measures 6mm in thickness and over 0.65 m² in area, classifying under HTS 7005.29.18 as non-wired float glass with a reflecting layer, not otherwise worked beyond polishing and coating. Cutting to shape does not affect its sheet classification per chapter notes.

Import Tips

• Verify the low-E coating qualifies as a 'reflecting layer' per chapter note (c) with documentation on metal oxide composition to avoid reclassification

• Measure sheet area precisely (>0.65 m²) and thickness (<10mm) before import; provide mill test certificates for glass composition and surface treatment
