Maximum Workspace, Total Access
The Paragon CS26 Large Capacity Glass Kiln is built for professional glass artists, production studios, and educational facilities that need maximum workspace, exceptional firing uniformity, and unrestricted access for large-scale projects. As the largest clamshell model in the CS Series, the CS26 combines a spacious 26" x 26" x 13" firing chamber with advanced heating technology and professional-grade construction.
Unlike traditional top-loading kilns, the CS26's single-opening clamshell design lifts the entire lid and wall assembly upward, giving you unobstructed access to the kiln floor. That makes it easy to build large fused glass panels, arrange intricate compositions, position molds, and assemble complex projects directly on the kiln shelf without reaching over kiln walls.
Included with every order
SENTINEL Touch Xpress touchscreen controller with Ramp-Hold programming, instruction manual, and 2-year limited warranty.
