EXCEL® kilns are precision manufactured with only top quality components to assure years of service. And they include many standard features that are extra on other round kilns.
EZ-Lift spring-assisted hinge for EXCEL® 10 and 12-sided kilns makes the lid lighter for easier opening and closing while making your EXCEL® kiln safer by reducing the risk of sudden lid drops. An EZ-Lift Upgrade Kit is also available as an add-on to existing 10 and 12-sided EXCEL® kilns.
The general features of EXCEL® kilns include:
- Modular design - independent sections allow for one-person moving and easy brick and element replacement
- Premium refractory firebrick - made from the highest quality materials, carefully cut and grooved for precise fit.
- Sealed, dust-free lids with full floating hinges to allow for proper expansion and contraction during firing
- Two-position, reinforced steel bar -- Standard on all EXCEL® kilns including models with EZ-Lift -- secures lid while loading and unloading
