PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

ABOUT

The AF3C 2422 is an ideal kiln for home studios, offering the perfect blend of size and performance. Its 22” depth makes loading and unloading a breeze.

Pro Tip: it's especially helpful for the vertically challenged!

When upgraded to the 3” brick option, this kiln is a workhorse production kiln as opposed to hobbyists, capable of firing up to cone 6 multiple times a week. The 3” brick upgrade has walls and lid to provide 20% more insulation than traditional brick kilns, making it energy-efficient while maintaining excellent heat retention.

Additionally, it’s designed for ease of use, with Lid Lifters (optional) making it possible to open with just two fingers. When paired with the Orton Downdraft System, the AF3C 2422 offers effortless venting and zone control for more even firings.

It fits through most standard doorways with the smallest measurement of 35" and offers ample room for a full 21" shelf or two half shelves, accommodating square pieces up to 15” x 15”.

With a 42-amp draw, it fires both low-fire ceramics and pottery up to cone 6, as well as high-fire ceramics up to cone 8 (2300°F).
