Why Choose a Rohde KG Gas Kiln?
Rohde KG gas kilns are designed for ceramicists who require reliable, controlled gas firing in professional studio and workshop environments. Combining practical front-loading access with robust gas-firing technology, the KG Series supports a wide range of ceramic applications, offering flexibility for both oxidation and reduction firing.
Downdraft flame control promotes even temperature distribution throughout the kiln chamber, while manual adjustment via a flue slide allows precise management of the firing atmosphere. This level of control supports consistent results across a variety of clay bodies and firing techniques, making the KG Series well suited to regular and demanding firing schedules.
Controlled Firing and Atmospheric Flexibility
The downdraft firing system helps maintain balanced heat circulation throughout the kiln, supporting stable firing conditions from start to finish. Manual atmospheric adjustment allows experienced users to influence reduction and oxidation during firing, providing the control needed for expressive and technical ceramic work.
Integrated spy holes allow visual monitoring of cones throughout the firing process, supporting accurate temperature assessment and confident decision-making during each firing cycle.
Designed for Safe, High-Temperature Studio Use
Built for safe, high-temperature operation, Rohde KG gas kilns are capable of firing up to 1320 °C. Reduction-resistant firebrick linings and lightweight insulating firebricks help maintain stable internal conditions while supporting efficient heat retention.
Durability and long-term reliability are central to the KG Series design. Stainless steel in-frame ventilation helps manage external surface temperatures and protects against corrosion, while pre-installed gas fittings and safety components support dependable operation in professional firing environments.
