1 Kiln Shelves Please note that kiln shelves are fragile. If you live within the lower mainland, we suggest you pick them up in person. If long-distance shipping is necessary, kiln shelves do best if packed vertically between the boxes of a clay shipment. Kiln shelves should be dried well before the first firing.

We recommend that you plan to ship your shelves along with your clay orders to safeguard your shelves against damage. Silicon Carbide: Imported oxide bonded silicon carbide shelves are coated on one side with kiln wash. The design incorporates side slits to prolong shelf life by relieving thermal expansion stress. Cutting Shelves: You can cut shelves yourself with an inexpensive masonary blade on a skill saw. Cut the shelf before firing. Or... We can have shelves cut if required, but customer must give us advance notice. We may have to order shelves cut at Plainsman, and brought in on next clay load. Cutting charges to be determined at the time. Sorry, but we aren't able to cut shelves on site. Kiln Posts Durable high alumina posts for use up to cone 10.

2 DAL Plate Cranks Excellent value! These quality plate cranks are produced by DAL Refractories and can fire up to cone 10. Essential for firing plates and other flat items that can take up a lot of kiln space when fired on regular shelves. The extra ware that a plate crank allows you to include per kiln load helps you to pay for the cranks in only a few loads. #3544 : Crank for 12" dia. plates...$44.39 #3510 : Crank for 14" dia. plates...$49.89 American Tile Setters These mullite tile setters are generally meant for firing tiles at low temperature, cone Tile setter " tiles Outside dimensions of setter: 12" high x 4 1/2" deep x 11" wide.

3 Stilts Stilts are generally used at low temperature - cone 06, to support pieces that have been glazed on the bottom. The clay the stilts are made from is a high temperature body, but the manufacturer doesn't recommend firing above cone 6 as the nichrome wire may bend. #0... (1/4")... $1.20 #1/2...

They are flame proof, durable, and lined with wool fleece for added protection. Their general use is for unloading kilns or handling hot items. They are a must to protect hands from heat during the Raku Firing process. Note that these gloves are not meant for contact with the raku pots themselves. Normally you'd use raku tongs to pickup the pots, and the gloves are to protect your hands while using the tongs. Normal size is "large". These gloves are also available in small and medium sizes: we may have to special order these sizes.

The clay body for the bead racks is a cone 10 body, but the manufacturer recommends firing to a maximum of cone 04 because the nichrome wire starts to bend.

4 Insulating Soft-Brick This lightweight brick is used in the construction of kilns. K-23 brick are the most commonly used choice, as they insulate better, are lighter, and cheaper than the K-26 brick. K-23 brick are rated to 2300 F. K-26 are rated to Size of the brick is 2.5" x 4.5" x 9". 12 bricks in a box.

Flame brick is the lowest duty brick and is suitable for exit flues and chimneys. France Non-Spall brick is a high duty (2600*F) brick with some iron content and is suitable inside the kiln for support purposes as well as being suitable for fireboxes and bagwalls. Duralite brick is a high duty, high alumina brick suitable for use in salt kilns. Note: customer must specify BTU's when ordering: For straight burners: - Natural Gas: range is 110,000 to 160,000 BTU's - Propane: range is 110,000 to 200,000 BTU's For 90 degree burners: - Natural Gas: range is 110,000 to 160,000 BTU's - Propane: range is 110,000 to 160,000 BTU's Due to the 90 degree bend, the maximum recommended BTU range for propane is slightly lower.
