Ideal for Complex Glass Firing Needs
The Olympic Kilns 2514GFE is the ultimate kiln for glass artists who need to work on large or uniquely shaped projects. With a spacious firing chamber measuring 37″ wide by 25″ front-to-back by 13.5” deep, this oval kiln is perfect for accommodating oversized pieces that don’t fit in traditional cylindrical or square kilns.

Advanced Heating for Precision Control
Equipped with both lid and body elements, the 2514GFE ensures that your glass pieces are heated evenly and precisely throughout the firing process. The lid element provides the radiant heat necessary during the fusing stage, while the body elements handle the ramping up, down, and annealing phases. The infinite switch gives you full control over the intensity of the lid element, allowing you to tailor the heat distribution to the specific needs of each project. This flexibility ensures that you achieve consistent, high-quality results every time.
Built to Last with User-Friendly Features
Constructed with a robust stainless-steel jacket and supported by an 18″ tall metal stand, the 2514GFE is designed for durability and ease of use in any professional studio. The Bartlett Instruments 3 Key electronic controller allows for precise control over firing schedules, with simple scroll functionality for programming ramp-hold settings. The kiln also includes a pilot light for safety, peephole plugs for monitoring progress, and a comprehensive instruction manual to guide you through every step of operation.
Customize Your Kiln for Enhanced Performance
The 2514GFE offers a range of optional upgrades to enhance its performance and tailor it to your specific needs. Choose the Genesis touchscreen controller or the 12-key digital KilnStar controller for more advanced programming capabilities. Additional options include a bead door, quartz glass viewing window, lid element in quartz rods, and an automatic lid shutoff, allowing you to customize the kiln to suit your exact requirements.
