This Large Bead Rack is designed for potters, jewelers, and glass artists. It allows you to easily glaze fire beads, pendants, buttons, and more without the worry of them sticking to your kiln shelf. The entire rack is placed in the kiln with your glazed pieces on it.

This rack is made from two durable cast stoneware supports with six 6" long nichrome wires. The wires rest on grooves in the rack, so they can be easily rearranged to accommodate different size pieces. The wires are heavy gauge metal and can withstand multiple firings. If you need more room for firing multiple, lightweight pieces, this rack can also accommodate 10" replacement wires. The manufacturer recommends that if you are firing heavy pieces you use the shorter wires to prevent sagging.

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.

The Large Bead Rack measures approximately 6.5" in height. The maximum firing temperature is Cone 10 (2400° F / 1315° C).
