The Paragon F-130 works flawlessly . I consider it one of the better investments in my craft . It's purely amazing how well the controller will maintain your proper temperature . –Mike Nichols of Huntsville,Texas

Thick firebricks; sidewall element
The firebricks in the roof,walls,door,and bottom are 3 thick . This is 20{89ed6a4e861fa1450bcdffea9c875977b8fbe2ec09d431aa27b85266faa15f02} more insulation than the standard 2½firebricks in the walls and bottom of our earlier F-130 kilns . The extra insulation enables the F-130 to maintain a temperature hold with greater ease . Sidewall heat is now standard in the F-130 . The element heats from the sides and back of the kiln in dropped,recessed wall grooves .

Deluxe door gaskets
Because of a gap under the small punty rod door,you can usually close the door all the way even when mandrels extend past the firingchamber . This helps to retain the heat in the kiln . Powerful,rare-earth magnets hold the punty rod door in the open and closed positions . To further retain heat,the 4 x 8 punty rod door is 2 thick and includes two woven,flexible high-temperature gaskets .

Slide-out mandrel holder
The mandrel holder can be adjusted horizontally and vertically without tools . Position the heavy-duty welded mandrel holder anywhere from 4½to 13 in front of the main section of kiln floor . (Note: The firebrick extension on the front of the kiln extends 3 beyond the front edge of the kiln floor .) Then tighten the mandrel holder with thumb screws . The holder slides inside steel tubes in the base of the kiln . The stainless steel mandrel rest,which includes 7 slots,can be adjusted vertically .

Sloped control panel
The control panel is angled for easy viewing and operation of the digital controller . Program the kiln from a comfortable position . The controller,pilot light,and switch are mounted on a brushed stainless steel plate . Gain easy access to the electrical components by removing the front panel .

Stainless steel rod warmer

To save production time,pre-heat glass rods on top of the kiln . The 5 long stainless steel rod warmer is slotted for five rods .

Made in America
The kiln is made at the Paragon factory in Mesquite,Texas,which is about 20 minutes east of Dallas . Our kilns are not merely assembled−they are hand crafted .
