Abstract

A window glass having shaped metallic brackets with a U-shaped cross section which are force-fittingly connected by clamping to the edge areas of the glass, wherein the window glass is provide on at least one surface on the edge area overlapped by the shaped metallic bracket with a raised layer which securely adheres to the glass surface and which is made of a highly elastic polymer which produces a large-surface force connection to the abutting shaped shank with partial elastic deformation. The window glass avoids the use of adhesives between the shaped brackets and glass surface and is suitable for industrial production.
