• No lid supports in the way of loading your kiln
• Load from both sides

Less Chance of Lid Damage

• Lighter lid reduces lid and kiln lip damage

Reduce Strain and Improve User Safety

• A plunger-type safety latch holds the lid in place when open
• Ceramic handle stays cool
• The clasp holds the lid down when firing

Stable Construction

• The hinge extends over three kiln sections and ties the kiln together for stability

Corrosion & Heat Resistant
