SuperClear 45-HS-LI by SAFTI FIRST
ADVERTISEMENT SAFTI FIRST’s SuperClear 45-HS-LI (hose stream low-iron) is a new, economical, patent-pending 45 minute glazing product that replaces unsafe wire glass and expensive ceramics, considered obsolete by SAFTI FIRST, in all 45 minute applications. Proudly USA-made, it is listed by both UL and Intertek, and meets NFPA 252, NFPA 257, UL 9 and UL 10C for fire and CPSC Cat. II (400 ft. lbs.) for safety. It does not have any wires or amber tints, making it the only true CLEAR SOLUTION for 45 minute doors, sidelites, transoms and openings. It does not need any films or laminates to meet impact safety requirements. SuperClear 45-HS-LI is a durable product that is more likely to survive an impact compared to filmed or laminated ceramics, which means lower replacement costs over time. All of these benefits at more affordable price than filmed or laminated ceramics used in the same application.
