Cutting Force For Removing Glass With Cutting Thread

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2018 Porsche Cayenne, 2017 Porsche Cayenne, 2016 Porsche Cayenne, 2015 Porsche Cayenne, and 2014 Porsche Cayenne. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Information

The force required for separating the glass is lower when the cutting thread is deflected to its maximum point. An angle greater than 90° should be avoided.
