Description
The Large Bead Rack is designed for potters, jewelers and glass artists alike. It allows you to easily glaze fire beads, pendants, buttons, etc. without the worry of them sticking to your kiln shelf.
This rack measures 8" tall and is made from two durable stoneware supports. It includes seven pieces of 10" long nichrome wires. The wires rest on grooves in the rack, so they can be easily rearranged to accommodate different size pieces.
The wires have a maximum weight rating of approximately 13 grams per inch (or 82 grams per 6" wire) resulting in some deflection of the wire.
For little to no deflection, the wires should carry no more than 3.5 grams per inch (or 20.75 grams per 6" wire).
For best results distribute weight evenly across the wire.
All values have been tested at cone 6, results at higher cones may vary.
Maximum firing temperature is Cone 10 (2400 F).
