Fuse, Cast, Fire with the JK² 27x27x15 Glass/Casting Kiln

The Jen-Ken AFG JK² 15" Glass + Casting Kiln brings you two kilns in one, with specialized firing modes for both glass work and casting (& some low-fire ceramics). 

With its 27" x 27" x 15" chamber and intelligent heating design, this kiln switches easily between glass fusing and casting functions. Each mode optimizes the heating elements differently - giving you top and side heat for glass fusing, or concentrated side-firing for casting projects up to 2150°F.

Create confidently with the Orton AutoFire controller, which maintains precise temperatures for both glass and casting work. The dual-mode design lets you explore multiple techniques without needing separate kilns. For studios expanding their capabilities, this adaptable kiln opens new creative possibilities in both glass and casting work.
