METAGLAS® Type 80 — Clamp-Fit Metal-Fused Sight Glass (DIN 32676 / ISO 2852)
Metaglas is the strongest, most secure glass technology for sight windows. The mechanically prestressed, glass-to-metal fused
construction delivers safety margins and service life far beyond conventional sight glasses. Type 80 is designed for clamp fittings
to DIN 32676 / ISO 2852 (sanitary Tri-Clamp® pattern) for rapid, hygienic installation.

Interface: Clamp connection per DIN 32676 / ISO 2852
Assembly: Metal-fused glass ring creating permanent compressive pre-stress
Sealing: Uses standard sanitary clamp gasket profiles
Profile: Low build height for maximum viewing aperture
Performance: High resistance to pressure cycling, thermal shock, and vibration
Applications
Hygienic pipelines in food, dairy, beverage, and brewing
Pharmaceutical and biotechnology process skids (CIP/SIP)
Chemical and cosmetic sanitary transfer lines
Inline visual inspection points and sight flow sections
Key Advantages:
Stronger and safer than conventional sight glasses
Long working life with smooth, easy-clean viewing surface
Fast clamp installation and gasket standardisation
Specify clamp size, pressure/temperature envelope, and material options and we’ll configure Type 80 to your duty —
ready for compliance with sanitary standards and PED requirements.
