IMAGINE IF YOUR KILN LASTED 20 YEARS? Kilns self destruct. Loading and unloading, heating and cooling, moving elements, acidic fumes from the ceramic process: all take their toll. That undestanding is the design philosophy behind L&L Kilns. We design for durability, performance, and safety. We hope you will benefit by what we offer. Patented Dyna-Glow Hard Ceramic Element Holders Make that Possible HARD CERAMIC ELEMENT HOLDERS - KEY TO L&L’S DURABILITY The smooth, hard surface of the inside ceramic channel allows the elements to expand and contract freely. No pins! This prevents catastrophic element failure. Elements do not droop out of broken firebrick channels. The dense ceramic DynaGlow holders extend element life because they do not insulate the hot elements from the kiln interior. Stop worrying about loading your kiln! Load with confidence. You won’t damage the fragile firebrick, touch dangling elements, or damage the protected thermocouples. ELEMENT HOLDERS MAKE YOUR L&L KILN EASY TO LOAD Everyone eventually hits the side of their kiln when loading shelves and work. L&L kiln owners don’t sweat this because the hard holders take the beating (unlike most kilns where the fragile brick forms the element channel). Also, for professionals who know they will change elements, it will take minutes not hours with hard ceramic holders. You will not break brick, push pins into broken brick, or crimp element connectors. Anyone can do it with a screwdriver and a wrench.
