Description

The kiln is designed for annealing large glass figurines, beads, and marbles and is made at the Paragon factory in Mesquite, Texas USA. The interior is 24" wide, 22 1/4" high, and 18" deep. Imagine the huge glass pieces you could make with a kiln this large.
The massive F-500, with its towering door counter-weight and handsome black finish, is a true workhorse kiln that will raise your production. The F-500 simplifies annealing so you can immerse yourself in creating breathtaking ware.
Raise the counter-weight vertical-drop door to insert glass on a punty rod. Lower the door. The punty rod extends outside the firing chamber through a smaller punty rod door. The door is balanced so it stays open where you stop it. Maintain the annealing temperature indefinitely with the Sentry Xpress 3-key controller.
The punty rod doors retain the heat
The main door includes two 4" x 10 1/2" punty rod door openings. Two flexible gaskets under each door help to retain the heat. The rods can extend outside the kiln through the gap under the doors. This allows the doors to remain fully closed. The ceramic fiber punty rod doors are a full two inches thick to help retain heat.
Rare-earth magnets hold the doors in the open and closed positions. Specifications:
