Pure Sheffield Slip:
Click here if you are looking for our Albany Slip Substitute... the closest thing to the original on the market...
Sheffield Slip Clay is currently being used in a wide range of
applications including moist clays, glazes, grinding wheels and other
abrasives both here and abroad. The clay is mined from the ceramic
grade clay in an extensive deposit located in Sheffield, Massachusetts.
The mine has been in continuous operation since 1945. Sheffield Slip
Clay is uniform in content and particle size and can be relied on to
produce dependable results. This clay is an excellent substitute for
the now unavailable Albany Slip Clay, and can be used for the same
applications with some minor modifications. A geological comparison
review of the Sheffield and Albany clays, as well as a chemical
analysis are available.

The following suggestions are approximations and each formula
should be tested before production. If the Albany was a component of a
formula (about 50% or less), we suggest our Albany Slip Substitute or fluxing the Sheffield with
frits since Sheffield Slip Clay is higher in iron and slightly more
refractory than the Albany.
