Introducing the Olympic Kiln GF5E, a square-designed glass kiln that revolutionizes traditional cylindrical models by offering expanded firing space. With its innovative design, this model ensures optimal heat distribution for superior glass fusing results.
Equipped with an element in the lid for radiant heat and elements in the kiln walls for conductive heat, the GF5E ensures even heating of glass pieces. With a maximum temperature range of 1700°F, our kilns safeguard the optional quartz glass viewing window, although they can be reprogrammed to fire at higher temperatures as needed. For added convenience, models 20” wide or larger feature a lid lift assist for effortless opening and closing.
Our 240-208-volt glass fusing kilns come standard with essential features, including a pilot light, a tall 18” metal stand or frame, a stainless steel jacket, and a Bartlett 3 Key electronic controller. Data entry for ramp/hold programming is easily accomplished by scrolling for the desired temperature. Each kiln package includes peephole plugs and instruction manuals, backed by a two-year Kiln Limited Warranty.
Explore additional options to enhance your kiln experience, such as upgrading to the KilnStar digital controller or the Genesis controller with touchscreen technology. Other available upgrades include the KISS computer interface, Type S thermocouple, flash arm, quartz glass viewing windows, lid elements in quartz rods, venting, and more.
The GF5E Furniture Kit offers two layers of shelving for stacking ware. Choose the standard furniture kit or customize your own with shelves and posts in the quantities required.
Experience the next level of glass fusing with the Olympic Kiln GF5E, engineered to meet the demands of glass artists seeking precision, reliability, and versatility.
