Durston Elite E320 Pottery Wheel
The Durston Elite E320 brings more than six decades of British precision engineering to the studio, delivering high-torque performance, rock-solid stability, and long-term durability in a wheel built for hobbyists, professional studios, and classrooms alike. An extremely high-torque brushless motor provides smooth, predictable control from the slowest creep speeds up to 280 rpm, with forward and reverse function and an exceptional throwing capacity of 100 kg+ (220+ lbs) — from delicate small forms to serious production work.
The body is formed from high-quality die-cast aluminium, creating a rigid, stable platform that stays planted through long sessions at the wheel. The belt-driven system delivers quiet, efficient power, controlled by a die-cast aluminium foot pedal designed for precision and maintenance-free operation. The 12½" aluminium wheel head sits on a unique spindle system that allows tool-free removal by hand while fully protecting the waterproof, high-quality bearings, and a large easy-wipe slop tray with integrated drain hole keeps you and your workspace clean. Pre-tapped threaded holes throughout the body, a movable shelf, and compatibility with two seat configurations let you adapt the setup to your own working style.
Included with every order
12½" aluminium wheel head with pre-drilled bat pin holes, bat pins, die-cast aluminium foot pedal, and Durston's 12-month standard warranty plus a 10-year manufacturing warranty on the die-cast chassis. Available in seven colors — Silver, Pink, Green, Blue, Bronze, Purple, and Red — selectable at checkout.
