ChamferChamfering

A finishing method that bevels and trims the sharp edges of glass or flat boards

A finishing processing method that cuts the angled borders of cut sheet glass, stone, wood, and similar materials at a bevel. By smoothing the sharp and rough cut surfaces right after cutting, it reduces the risk of injury to hands and prevents the edges from chipping. It is mainly applied to table glass tops or mirror borders.

Appearance

The edges are not sharply squared at right angles, but beveled into a flat slope at a consistent angle. A thin, slanted face that reflects light is consistently observed along the finished border.

Use

  • Ensuring safety Prevents accidents where hands or body parts are cut by sharp cut surfaces.
  • Preventing damage Eliminates sharp corner angles to reduce edge chipping caused by external impacts.

When choosing

When choosing furniture that includes a glass top, you should check whether chamfer processing has been applied to all edge surfaces. Look at detail photos to see if the borders are trimmed into smooth beveled surfaces rather than roughly cut at right angles.
