NO Days Glaze Width = Metal Came Channel Width (NOT Face Width)

NO Days Glaze for Stained Glass Windows is manufactured pre-formed to fit 7 different metal came channel widths.  Regardless of what metal came type or brand you are using, there is always a NO Days Glaze size available to fit within your metal came channel. View a list of NO Days Glaze Size Widths.

Channel width refers to the width of the channel inside the metal came where the glass is placed.  Most metal came sizes are measured and sold in "Face Width" and not "Channel Width."  If you use a 5/32" metal came Face Width, this does not mean you need a 5/32" (0.156", 3.96mm) NO Days Glaze size.  The correct NO Days Glaze size is the one that matches the size of your channel width.  For example, if you are using a metal came that has a 3/16" Channel Width, then you would use a 3/16" (0.188", 4.78mm) NO Days Glaze size.

Figure 1 represents a Flat H Came design with a Face Width of "A" and a Channel Width of "C."  The correct NO Days Glaze size to use is the one that matches Channel Width "C."
