    Could google it I suppose but I don't have the time. Let me know what you find.

    plant closed, google only shows outdated info, wouldn't ask any question before I research it myself. hoping to find a past employee or customer who may have specs

    it's lead glass but has an odd composition. annealing temp is high for lead and cte seems to be off as well. plant was a GE plant but even GE is having trouble locating the specs, or they are just lazy and don't want to help

    Got a call back from someone I know at GE. He basically said good luck. Only thing he could think of would be to call and try to get through to the actual glass lab in Richmond VA. He gave me this phone number to try:

    216-266-2121

    Hope this helps.

    I'll try that, thanks a lot! there is a chance that my production manager has already called them but since he could not get any answers I have taken it upon myself to investigate.
