Get it Hotter with the Olympic Kilns 1818HE Electric Kiln

Embrace the pinnacle of ceramic and pottery innovation with the Olympic Kilns 1818HE Electric Kiln. Designed for both home studios and professional settings, this kiln elevates your creative potential with unmatched performance and reliability.

Superior High-Fire Capability

The 1818HE stands out with its high-fire capacity, reaching up to Cone 10 and 2350°F/1288°C. Inside its 17.5" wide by 18" deep chamber, artists can create high-fired stoneware and porcelain known for their strength, translucence, and lasting beauty.

Innovative Stackable Design

Maintaining its stackable, modular design, the 1818HE offers easy assembly and disassembly, making it ideal for studios where space is limited or accessibility is crucial. Its modular structure ensures it fits through narrow doorways and simplifies transportation and maintenance.

Consistent and Reliable Firing

With Olympic’s trusted electrical box design, the 1818HE operates cool, ensuring longer-lasting components and safer operation. The kiln’s balanced heating elements provide uniform heat distribution, delivering consistent and reliable firing results with every use.

Advanced Digital Control

The Olympic Kilns 1818HE comes standard with the Digital KilnStar Controller, offering a seamless, user-friendly interface for precise control over your firing process. The KilnStar is designed to make programming both easy and highly accurate, allowing you to effortlessly set up cone fire or ramp/hold processes. Its intuitive design ensures precision with minimal effort, making it a valuable tool for artists seeking reliability and control in their work.

For those looking to enhance their kiln’s capabilities, the Genesis Touchscreen Controller is available as an upgrade. The Genesis offers advanced features like a touchscreen interface, expanded program options, and the convenience of additional firing controls. This upgrade is perfect for artists who desire even more versatility and precision in their firing schedules.

Built to Last

The 1818HE is designed with durability in mind, featuring a sturdy metal stand, stainless steel jacket, and reliable safety features like a pilot light. Built to handle frequent use, it’s a kiln you can count on for years of creativity, backed by a One-Year Limited Kiln Warranty.

Customization for Versatility

Tailor your 1818HE to meet your specific artistic needs with optional features like multi-zone control for enhanced firing uniformity and a vent system for optimized firing atmospheres. The Dual Media Lid Element allows for glass fusing and slumping, expanding the kiln's use beyond ceramics into glasswork.

Upgrading to solid-state relays is highly recommended by Pottery Pulse to improve kiln performance, ensuring smoother element operation, better temperature accuracy, and longer element life.

Comprehensive Furniture Kit

A specially designed Furniture Kit accompanies the 1818HE, which includes one 15.5" x 16.5" x 1/2" octagon shelf, four 15.5" x 8-3/8" half shelves, and a variety of posts (6 each of 4, 6, and 8-inch) along with a 1 pound bag of kiln wash.
