COE96 Glass packs

COE96 glass packs bundle sheet glass, frit, and dichroic into convenient ready-to-use selections for COE96 fusing. This category gathers fusible packs in the 96 coefficient of expansion family, built around CBS Dichroic pattern assortments, Wissmach by-the-pound sheet, and frit samplers drawn from Oceanside, Wissmach, and Youghiogheny.

What a COE96 glass pack is

A pack is a pre-grouped selection of fusible glass sold together. In this category that means sheet glass packs (Wissmach 3mm and thin 2mm clear, black opalescent by-the-pound, and color assortments from Oceanside and Youghiogheny grouped by opalescent, streaky, or transparent), frit packs (sampler sets, mystery assortments, and Oceanside powder frit), CBS Dichroic pattern assortments, and ArtGlassSupplies.com (AGS) scrap packs of fusible cutoffs. Products in this category are intended for COE96 kilnforming; confirm the COE and compatibility notes on each pack before combining materials in one project.

CBS Dichroic packs

The COE96 CBS Dichroic glass packs sub-category collects curated CBS pattern assortments including Fusion, Pixie Stix, Twizzle, Voltage, and Chris Stell patterns, plus themed Christmas and Hanukah selections. Starter packs such as A Taste of Texture, Patterns Galore, and the Specialty Glass Starter give newer fusers a working sample of CBS textures without committing to full sheets, and a rainbow dichroic frit sample set is included for inclusions and small accents.

Sheet, frit, and scrap packs

The broader COE96 glass packs sub-category covers the non-dichroic options. Wissmach by-the-pound packs (3mm clear, 2mm thin clear, and black opalescent) are useful when you want a known weight of working stock. Oceanside and Youghiogheny color assortments deliver a spread of opalescent, streaky, or transparent sheet in one order, including an Oceanside Little Fuser pack sized for small projects. Frit sampler and mystery packs from Oceanside, Wissmach, and Youghiogheny let you try brands and colors before buying full jars, and ArtGlassSupplies.com (AGS) Assorted Anything scrap packs supply low-cost fusible cutoffs.

Choosing for COE96 compatibility

Every pack here is COE96 and is meant for use only with other 96 COE fusible glass. Do not mix with COE90 (Bullseye) or with non-fusible stained glass in the same firing, since mismatched expansion can cause stress or cracking during cooling. Within COE96, Oceanside, Wissmach, Youghiogheny, and CBS Dichroic on 96-compatible backing are commonly used in compatible COE96 projects, but test-fire unfamiliar pairings before scaling up.

Uses

Packs feed fused jewelry, pendants and cabochons, suncatchers, slumped dishes and bowls, pattern bars, and classroom kits. Frit samplers and dichroic starter assortments are common entry points for fusers who want exposure to multiple colors and effects before settling on favorites, while sheet and scrap packs keep a steady supply of base glass and filler on hand for ongoing studio work.
