The 3 Differences Between Pyrex and Glass Tanks
Posted by
onCartomizers or vape tanks are crucial vaping gear parts. The tanks hold the e-liquid. They also contain a coil that is activated to vaporize the liquid. Selecting a suitable vape tank can be a tedious task, especially if one is not familiar with vaping. When you are buying a vape tank, it is important that you ensure that it matches your device and e-liquid.
The most expensive, or even the best tanks in the market, aren’t always the
best. The tank may not produce your required flavor or taste, regardless of the
type of e-liquid used. This is because they may not be designed for each other.
That is why we will discuss three main differences between glass and Pyrex
tanks.
Strength of the Materials
Pyrex is 4 to 6 times harder than glass. While both tanks are made from the
same material, various processes are used to manufacture the products at the
industrial level. Pyrex is a tempered glass that acquires different and better
characteristics than normal glass. It is made from a low coefficient of
borosilicate. Glass is weaker than Pyrex because it is blown and pressed before
it is molded. This means that Pyrex tanks can withstand high temperatures
than glass tanks. Pyrex tanks are used because of their unique ability to
absorb shock. This is caused by the electrical process of heating the
e-liquid.
Breaking of the Tank Materials
Pyrex and glass are susceptible to breakage upon heating. The breaking pattern
is what differentiates the two materials. Pyrex often shatters into cubical
pieces while glass breaks into sharp edged pieces. The debris resulting from
glass are dangerous and may damage the lungs. A professional glass blower
describes the pieces as microchips that can be inhaled into the lungs. The
difference in their breakage pattern is a result of the materials` varying
strength. This also causes a difference in tastes of flavors that are used in
Pyrex and glass tanks. All flavors can be used in Pyrex tanks. Glass tanks are
selective to some of the flavors because glass is easily decomposed upon
heating.
Sudden Change in Temperature
Pyrex is suitable to sudden temperature changes. Glass breaks if it is heated
suddenly. This means that e-liquid flavors vaporize quickly in Pyrex tanks as
opposed to glass tanks. Glass tanks require slow progressive heating. Pyrex is
very reliable and durable to bear hot conditions. It is also made to tolerate
temperature changes in the environment. You can use it in cold and hot
areas. Researchers have proven that the compatibility of Pyrex with
various types of vape juice flavors is due to its ability to heat quickly. This
enables it to produce different flavors as opposed to glass tanks. Vapers
should choose their best tanks based on their preferred method of heating.
While some people enjoy vaporizing the liquid quickly, others prefer watching
the liquid heat and vaporize slowly.
Vapers should be very careful when selecting their vaping tank. Most tanks cannot sustain high temperatures. Others produce microchips that can be harmful to the lungs. The above comparison of Pyrex and glass tanks shows the characteristic differences that exist between the two materials. It is clear, Pyrex tanks are the better of the two types of tanks.
A MOD Type Battle: Regulated vs. Unregulated
One of the biggest debates that’s waged over the local vape store’s counter is whether regulated or unregulated MODs are better. Fans of both will never cease to printout the good sides of their favorite devices while incessantly calling out the flaws of the other type. In reality, there are upsides and downsides of both [...]
Clarity Time: Stop Confusing Vaporizers with MODs
Sometimes it can get pretty easy to interchange technical terms when it comes to vaping. E-liquid, pens, hits, clouds, and many more terms circulate without many definitive descriptions of what they mean. Each individual will have a slightly different interpretation of each word, leading to confusion down the line when talking to others. One of the [...]
