Built for glass artists, educators, and studios needing greater firing capacity and advanced heat control, the Paragon Fusion 10 delivers precise digital performance for bowls, platters, wall panels, bottle slumping, layered glasswork, decals, frit painting, and large-format fused glass projects. Its spacious firing chamber, dual heating system, and durable firebrick construction make it an excellent kiln for artists ready to expand both project size and production capability.
The Paragon Fusion 10 is designed for serious glass artists who need additional workspace without sacrificing thermal consistency or firing precision. Whether producing decorative panels, slumped vessels, recycled bottle projects, or multiple fused glass pieces in a single cycle, the Fusion 10 provides the chamber size and balanced heating necessary for dependable, repeatable results.
Inside the kiln, the wide 23.38" firing chamber with 11" interior depth gives artists the flexibility to fire larger projects or run multi-piece production loads more efficiently. The kiln’s 10-sided chamber geometry helps promote balanced heat circulation during firing and annealing cycles.
The Fusion 10 features both top-mounted lid elements and a recessed sidewall heating element to improve heat uniformity throughout the chamber. This dual-element design is especially valuable for thicker glass, layered compositions, and larger pieces that require stable, even heating across the entire firing surface.
Heating elements are mounted in pinless grooves to reduce maintenance requirements and minimize long-term wear. The recessed sidewall element is protected within the firebrick chamber for improved durability and long service life.
The kiln is constructed using a thick 3" firebrick lid combined with 2.5" insulating firebrick walls and floor for dependable thermal retention and firing stability. A full-formed galvanized steel base plate wraps partially around the kiln body to reinforce the chamber structure while supporting the reversible firebrick floor during repeated firing cycles.
To improve usability, the Fusion 10 includes a spring-assisted lid system that makes opening and closing the kiln easier during loading and unloading. A lock-in lid support provides additional safety and stability while accessing the chamber.
The kiln is equipped with the SENTINEL Touch Xpress digital controller mounted in a sloped switch box for comfortable operation and easy programming access. Artists can create, store, and manage detailed firing schedules with precise ramp and hold control for full fuse, tack fuse, slumping, and annealing applications. A heavy-duty sheathed Type-K thermocouple ensures accurate temperature readings throughout firing cycles, while a tapered peephole with plug allows chamber viewing with minimal heat loss.
The Fusion 10 is especially well-suited for glass artists, educational programs, production studios, and advancing hobbyists seeking larger firing volume with dependable thermal consistency. Its combination of expanded capacity, even heating, and durable construction makes it an excellent kiln for artists growing into more ambitious glasswork.
