Jen-Ken AF Mega Coil 2829-3" Ceramic/Pottery Kiln — Heavy-Duty, High-Capacity Production Kiln

Built for serious ceramic artists and busy production studios, the Jen-Ken AF Mega Coil 2829-3" delivers powerful performance, long element life, and incredibly easy maintenance. The oversized Mega Coils—one per full brick—provide exceptional heating efficiency and extended lifespan, while the 3" brick insulation and solid-state relays ensure stable, consistent firings every time.

With a deep 29" chamber and rugged direct-wire 240V design, this kiln excels in studios firing low-fire and mid-range ceramics frequently. It fires up to Cone 8 (~2300°F), making it suitable for functional ware, glazes, and stoneware work while minimizing wear on elements during repeated production cycles.

If service is ever needed, Mega Coils can be replaced in about 10 minutes without a technician—minimizing downtime and keeping your workflow moving. Lid lifters are standard for easy loading, and a sectional build option is available for narrow-door installations.
