Glass Size


Recommended Posts

I had some kids take a shovel to the front glass about a week ago on my GPL 173.  I guess they were hungry and didn't have any change :)

 

I am looking for anyone that has the size needed so that I can replace it.  I tried looking in the manual, but could not find.

I think the GPL series you have is considered the same as a late model 158 so check on this size compared to your window: 42 27/32" x 21 19/32" x 3/16".  If this won't be the right size then you need to use the early 158 size of: 20 5/8" X 42 3/4" X 3/16".  Be sure you use tempered glass, not sheet glass.  You want glass that crumbles when broken.

I assumed that as well, but actually finding the glass size in the manual is pretty much impossible.  Also, I would prefer to buy local instead of having shipped if possible.

Usually a good glass shop can order a piece within about three days - figure about sixty bucks. Make sure you've got your dimensions right - there's no trimming tempered glass.

I have not done a National machine glass, but the APs have a gasket that goes around the glass before inserting. Be sure to save that when cleaning out the old glass.
