Lid Lifter
|
All Skutt 10 and 12-sided kilns come with a Lid Lifter as a standard feature. These spring-assisted lids are so light you can lift them with a finger. Compare them to other brands and you will feel the difference.
Every Skutt lid is coated with a strong, long lasting refractory cement that prevents brick dust from falling into the kiln and improves the lids structural integrity. Since both sides are coated, the lid can be reversed for double the life.
A 2-position, lid brace is included for additional safety and convenience.

|
• Recommended for high-fire models.
• Comes standard on 1627, 1227, and 614 models.
• Remember this will decrease the chamber size on some models by 1".
• 3² brick will increase the temperature rating on some models.
• Kilns will cool slower.

APM Elements
|
Kanthal APM elements are different from standard elements because they are manufactured from powdered material. This new technology provides improved dimensional stability at higher temperatures which results in significantly longer element life. If you are firing Crystal Glazes or consistently firing Cone 10 materials, these elements are highly recommended.

Furniture Kit
Triangular Posts and Shelves
|
A furniture kit is used to create shelf layers inside your kiln. Although the contents of shelf kits vary depending on the kiln model all shelf kits will contain a selection of shelves and 1 or more post assortment kits. Furniture kits for kilns with 8 sides or less will come with 18 posts, 3 each in lengths 1" thru 6". Kits for larger kilns will come with 36 posts. All furniture kits are designed to fire to Cone 10 temperatures.

Blank Ring
|
A blank ring is a 4.5" extension ring that may be added to most Skutt KilnSitter models to increase the height and overall capacity of the kiln. On multi-section kilns, the ring fits between the master section and the top section. Due to the fact that blank rings increase the volume of the kiln without adding more power, the maximum Cone rating when fired with a blank ring is reduced to cone 1. The ring can be added or removed when necessary.

Zone Control
|
The Zone Control feature was designed for users who require tight uniformity of heat throughout the kiln. This feature incorporates thermocouples in each kiln section so each section can be monitored and controlled independently. This can be very helpful for applications where it is not possible to load the kiln evenly. The increased control can extend firing times in certain situations. Consult your distributor for more details.
