Abstract

A glass-to-metal hermetic seal assembly in a sight glass assembly or a hermetic terminal assembly is disclosed and includes a glass component, an intermediate component, and an outer ring. The intermediate component is provided around the glass component. The glass component is fused to the intermediate component. The outer ring, which has a coefficient of thermal expansion that is greater than a coefficient of thermal expansion of the glass component, compresses the intermediate component against the glass component to create a hermetic compression seal.
