If you include an aluminium heat spreader plate between the heater and the glass, then you can use ordinary float glass instead of borosilicate. Some people even use float glass directly on top of a PCB bed heater, but I don't advise that.

would that work for the 120-130 degrees celsius required for abs? i am asking this because normally float glass cracks at this temperature, and annealed glass is just marginally better. thanks.

Float glass only cracks if it is heated or cooled suddenly or unevenly. I use float glass at 100 to 110C bed temperature. I recently had one of my float glass beds in an oven at 170C for two hours without any problems.
