Abstract

Provided is a glass roll formed by winding a glass film into a roll, in which a minimum winding radius of the glass film is optimized. Thus, the glass film is reliably prevented from breaking due to static fatigue, and is able to be stored for long periods. A glass roll (1), which is formed by winding a glass film (2) into a roll, has a configuration in which the glass film has a minimum winding radius (R) satisfying the following relation: R≧(T/2)[(2.3/σ)×E−1], where σ represents flexural strength of the glass film (2) obtained by a 3-point bending test, T represents a thickness of the glass film, and E represents a Young's modulus of the glass film.
