Kittec Base Air Slide
The Kittec base air slide is a practical accessory for many kiln models in the Classic and Professional lines. It enables targeted regulation of the kiln atmosphere during firing by controlling the oxygen supply through an opening in the kiln base.
This allows for optimized combustion processes and more uniform firing results – especially for glaze firings or delicate workpieces. The slide is made of high-quality stainless steel, is heat-resistant, and is manually infinitely adjustable.
Advantages at a Glance
- Improved oxygen supply for uniform firing results
- Enables a controlled atmosphere (oxidizing or slightly reducing)
- Simple operation via slide mechanism
- Maintenance-free and durable due to stainless steel construction
- Ideal for glaze, bisque, and experimental firings
Technical Features
- Material: Stainless steel, temperature-resistant up to 1320 °C
- Operation: Manual, infinitely adjustable
- Installation: Directly on the kiln base (factory-installed or retrofittable)
- Compatible with: Kittec SQ, CB, CT, CBN, and X series
Areas of Application
- Glaze firings: Uniform temperature distribution and clearer glazes
- Raku & experimental: Better control of reducing atmospheres
- Workshops & schools: Simple operation, safe to use
The base air slide can be installed at the factory or retrofitted. It offers a simple yet effective way to actively influence the kiln's firing behavior and thus achieve more precise, reproducible results.
