Rear window 827/20263 JCB, aftermarket

Rear window 827/20263 is an aftermarket part for the JCB machines. According to the product card, this part is a rear window.

Cab glass gives the operator all-round visibility and protects the cab from dust, rain, wind and noise. On machines the windscreen is usually laminated: the film between two layers of glass holds the fragments together if it breaks. Door, side and rear windows are usually toughened (tempered) glass, which stands up better to impact and breaks into small, blunt pieces. A cracked or broken pane reduces visibility, lets water and dust into the cab and puts the operator's safety at risk. When the glass is replaced, the frame is checked for rust and distortion, as a bent frame stresses the new pane and can crack it.
