Kilncare Firecracker

 

Firecracker 

 

The Firecracker has been developed to give what we feel is the perfect glass kiln. A kiln born out of the necessity to have a unit that will cover virtually all aspects of glass kiln work. The firecracker is ideal for the artist who requires a multi use piece of equipment. Packed with features that will appeal to private artists, business users, and education establishments alike.

The kiln is primarily heated from the roof.

Elements made from KANTHAL A1 wire wound onto ceramic tubes.

Secondary heat can then be applied from the sides if required, from conventional side elements. Side heat is totally adjustable from 0 to 200% of the roof heat via the [ST 501] controller. A buzzer is linked to the controller to enable an audible reminder at any stage through the firing process.

The firecracker is protected from over firing by a thermal heat fuse

The top front face of the kiln is replaceable

The front face has a non ceramic rope seal set into the brickwork.

The kiln's frame is ventilated and rust resistant, is powder coated and oven baked in supermarine blue.

Maximum Design Temperature 860ºC

Inconel sheathed elements lid mounted

 

Also Available:
Firecracker Utility Stand:  The utility stand is custom made from steel and is powder coated and oven baked in the same colour as the kiln itself. Complete with closing doors, and a middle shelf, the stand is castor mounted to allow easy cleaning around the back of the firecracker.

Firecracker Floor Tile:  A high quality refractory tile made to fit the floor of the firecracker.
