"I've watched these Libbey 5139 glasses hold up in some seriously busy spots. One client ran three bars for a big festival, pushing thousands of drinks a day. The DuraTuff treatment on these 16 oz mixing glasses cut their replacements down and saved them headaches. Keeping a couple of spare cases on hand is smart."

The Libbey 5139 mixing glass, with its strengthened build, gives you a more durable option than standard glassware. That means fewer service interruptions, less staff time on cleanup, and fewer reorders. Check out our full range of non food range to outfit your whole operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are libbey glasses dishwasher safe?+
Yes, Libbey 5139 mixing glasses are built for commercial dishwasher use. The DuraTuff strengthening process helps them take the impacts and thermal shock that come with high-speed commercial dishwashers. That said, proper stacking in appropriate racks is key to minimizing rim chipping and extending their service life. Overcrowding racks or rough handling can still cause damage.
Is libbey glass borosilicate?+
No, Libbey's DuraTuff strengthened glass, including the 5139 mixing glass, isn't borosilicate. Borosilicate is a specific glass type known for high thermal shock resistance, often used in lab glassware or bakeware. The Libbey 5139 uses pressed soda-lime glass that goes through a specialized DuraTuff heat treatment. That process increases mechanical strength and resistance to breakage and chipping, making it suitable for demanding commercial food service environments.
Are libbey glasses tempered?+
The Libbey 5139 16 oz mixing glass is strengthened using Libbey's DuraTuff process, which is a form of heat treatment. This process makes the glass more resistant to impacts and thermal shock compared to standard annealed glass. "Tempered" usually refers to a specific process that results in small, blunt pieces upon breakage. DuraTuff primarily boosts overall durability and reduces chipping, which matters more for consistent performance in commercial settings. It's designed for operational resilience.
How to store Libbey 5139 Restaurant Basics Mixing Glass Strengthened for maximum shelf life?+
To maximize the operational lifespan of Libbey 5139 mixing glasses, store them upright in designated glassware racks with individual compartments. Use stacking mats to prevent direct glass-on-glass contact, especially at the rims. Avoid stacking them too high without separation, as that can cause stress fractures or chipping over time, in areas with frequent movement or vibration. Keep cases in a dry, stable environment away from extreme temperature swings.
Is Libbey 5139 Restaurant Basics Mixing Glass Strengthened compatible with standard commercial machines?+
Yes, the Libbey 5139 mixing glass works with standard commercial dishwashers and typical bar equipment used for drink prep. Its DuraTuff strengthening means it handles the intense wash cycles and high temperatures found in commercial units better than untreated glass. For best results, use appropriate glass racks during washing and storage to protect against contact damage, especially with high-speed conveyors. That keeps them running smoothly in daily operations.
Are libbey glasses marked?+
Libbey glassware, including the 5139 mixing glass, usually has subtle markings like the Libbey "L" insignia, typically on the base. These markings serve as brand identification and sometimes include specific product codes or manufacturing details. They're standard on commercial-grade Libbey products and help confirm authenticity, which can be useful for inventory management in larger operations.
What materials is Libbey 5139 Restaurant Basics Mixing Glass Strengthened made of?+
The Libbey 5139 Restaurant Basics Mixing Glass is made from pressed soda-lime glass. That base material goes through Libbey's proprietary DuraTuff strengthening process. This treatment improves the glass's resilience against common operational stresses like impacts and thermal shock. The combination of durable glass and specialized strengthening means it holds up to daily commercial food service use and reduces replacement frequency.
How to maintain Libbey 5139 Restaurant Basics Mixing Glass Strengthened for long-term use?+
For long-term use of the Libbey 5139 mixing glass, consistent maintenance is key. Load glasses into commercial dishwashers carefully using appropriate racks to prevent jostling and rim-to-rim contact. Skip abrasive cleaning pads or harsh chemicals that could scratch the surface. After washing, let them air dry fully or polish with a lint-free cloth. Inspect regularly for signs of chipping or cracking and remove damaged glasses immediately to avoid service interruptions.
What are the best practices for handling and stacking Libbey 5139 mixing glasses to prevent chipping in a busy bar?+
To minimize chipping and extend the life of your Libbey 5139 mixing glasses in a high-volume environment, handle them by the base or lower body. Avoid direct contact with the rim when possible. When stacking, use dedicated glassware racks that separate each glass, or use rubber stacking mats if storing directly on shelves. Never stack glasses too high, especially when wet, as that raises the risk of slipping and rim damage during retrieval.
How does the DuraTuff strengthening process of the Libbey 5139 mixing glass contribute to its longevity compared to other commercial glassware options?+
The DuraTuff strengthening process on the Libbey 5139 mixing glass is a proprietary heat treatment that fortifies the entire glass, the rim and foot. Unlike standard tempering that focuses on surface compression, DuraTuff improves overall mechanical strength. That makes the glass significantly more resistant to impacts, chipping, and thermal shock, which are common in busy food service operations. The result is a longer service life and fewer replacements compared to untreated or standard tempered glassware.
