Model – 189 Slider 240 or 208 volt
Inside dimensions: 18″ x 18″ wide x 9″ deep, fires to 1700° F
The 189 Slider square clamshell designed kiln with inside dimensions measuring 18″ x 18″ wide x 9″ deep has a sliding floor for ease in loading and glass manipulation. 189 Slider is bolted to an 18″ heavy angle iron stand and comes completely assembled when shipped. The sleek wooden handle keeps things cool as you slide the kiln floor out to a fully extended 44″ front-to-back. The 189 Slider lid brace arm is built into the side of the kiln and locks in place when the firing chamber is opened. The model has an element in the lid of the kiln to provide radiant heat needed when the fusing temperature is reached and elements in the kiln walls for conductive heat. Elements in the firing chamber are used to evenly heat the glass piece and the lid element is used when the fusing temperature is reached. Models have a maximum temperature range of 1700°F to protect the optional quartz glass viewing window but can be reprogrammed to fire to higher temperatures.
The 189 Slider comes equipped with a pilot light, a tall 18” heavy-angle iron stand, a stainless steel jacket, and the Bartlett KilnStar digital controller. Two-year Limited Kiln Warranty.
