Oceanside Black (style OGT1009S2MMF) is System 96 tested-compatible 96 COE fusible sheet glass, a dense opaque black in a thin 2mm smooth sheet.
Appearance
A smooth, glossy face with no streaking or variation, reading as a clean, even black across the whole sheet. As an opalescent it blocks light rather than passing it, for a true flat black.
Working notes
It works as a base layer, a backing, or a bold graphic color rather than a light-catching transparent. A full fuse keeps the glossy surface; a tack fuse holds more of the layered edges. At 2mm it adds a black layer without much height to a stack.
Reactions
This color is not on the System 96 reactive list, so it sits next to other colors without forming a reaction line. See the System 96 Reactive Color Chart for the colors that do react.
Format and sizes
Sold as 2mm smooth sheet glass. Choose your size from the options on this page.
Fusing and compatibility
Tested compatible with any other 96 COE glass in the System 96 family. With glass from other makers, matching COE alone does not guarantee compatibility, so fire a test tile first.
