Important Shipping Information about Kilns
(Shipping Estimates Will Not Be Correct)

 The shipping estimate for your order that you are quoted in check out will not reflect the actual
shipping total of the kiln - kilns are drop shipped separately from the manufacturer, so the shipping totals for all orders that include kilns need to be calculated by our customer service representatives.

You will be contacted by one of our customer service representatives once your order has been processed and your shipping total has been figured.

If the manufacturer has the kiln you've ordered in stock it will be shipped fairly soon. However,
please note that shipping may be delayed 2-5 weeks if the manufacturer does not have the kiln
in stock. This is especially true during the holiday season and other busy times of the year.

Features

Paragon GF-85B Glass Fusing Kiln

Our first glass fusing kilns, the GF-series, have passed the test of time since 1985. They helped start the glass fusing revolution.

"I've fired your kilns all over the country during my seminars. I never hear complaints about your kilns. They are reliable and last a hell of a long time." Dan Fenton, Fenton Glass Studio, Oakland, California

The GF-85B has one infinite control and safety pilot light. This kiln can be ordered for any electrical system world wide.

The GF-85B lid elements use a new element groove that eliminates element pins. The element coils are wider than the groove opening, so the elements stay in place without pins.

  • Pin less heating elements in lid
  • Two hand-lifts
  • Lock-in lid support
  • Galvanized steel base
  • Reversible brick bottom
  • Heavy-duty stand with mar-proof plastic feet
