Extra Depth, Dual-Element Heating
The Paragon Fusion 8 Glass Fusing Kiln is built for glass artists, educators, and studios who want greater firing depth and enhanced heat distribution. With a 17.5" x 11" octagonal firing chamber and a combination of top and sidewall heating elements, the Fusion 8 delivers precise digital control for fused glass jewelry, bowls, plates, slumping, decals, and bottle fusing.
The octagonal chamber design helps promote even heat circulation, while the dual-element configuration improves thermal balance when firing layered, delicate, or dimensionally varied glass projects. A lock-in lid support and tapered peephole with plug make loading and monitoring easier, and the kiln ships with an 18" steel stand for a comfortable working height.
Included with every order
SENTINEL Touch Xpress digital controller, 18" steel stand, instruction manual, and 2-year limited warranty.
