Soldner P450: Ultimate Power Meets Modern Technology
Soldner wheels are known as the "Rolls Royce of Pottery Wheels," and the P450 takes this reputation to new heights. It's designed for potters who demand the most from their wheel, combining incredible strength with cutting-edge features.
Center 450 Pounds and Beyond with The Soldner Pottery Wheel P450
Do you dream of making truly enormous pots? The P450 can handle at least 450 pounds of clay, with some potters pushing it even further. Danny Messinger, a renowned potter, even managed to center an incredible 600 pounds on this wheel! As he says, "Best Wheel I've Ever Used."
Enjoy Quiet Power for Big Projects
Working with lots of clay usually means a noisy wheel. Not with the P450. Its brushless motor runs quietly, even when you're throwing huge pieces. You can focus on your work without the distraction of a loud motor, no matter how big your project is.
Choose Your Perfect Peddle Control
Every potter has their own style. The P450 lets you pick between two types of foot pedals:
- A wide, comfortable pedal that's easy on your foot during long sessions with heavy clay.
- The classic Soldner pedal, if you prefer the traditional feel for your big projects. You can choose the one that feels best for your throwing style, even when working with massive amounts of clay.
Sealed Electronics for Ultimate Protection
Making large pieces can be messy work. The P450's important electronic parts are sealed tight (engineers call this IP66). This means that even when you're splashing lots of water or creating clouds of clay dust, your wheel's electronics stay protected and keep working perfectly.
Consistent Speed, No Matter the Size
Have you ever had a wheel slow down when you're centering a huge amount of clay? The P450's motor is extra powerful and smart.
It keeps the same speed whether you're throwing a tiny cup or a massive (600lb!) vase. This makes centering easier and faster, especially for your biggest pieces.
Soldner P450: Adjusts to Your Needs
Throwing big pots can be hard on your body. The P450 has adjustable legs, so you can set it to the perfect height for you. This helps reduce strain on your back and shoulders, even when you're wrestling with huge amounts of clay.
Your P450 Pottery Wheel is Ready for Big Challenges
When your P450 arrives, you won't have to waste time setting it up. It comes ready for action, with everything in place. Just plug it in, set the height, and you can start on your most ambitious projects right away.

What Potters Say About Soldner Wheels
"Best Wheel I've Ever Used" - Danny Messinger, renowned potter
"OMG Soldner wheels are the most amazing wheels on the planet! I'm a professional potter and I teach at an art center and we are so lucky to have these. They run like a dream. They have the best foot pedal for controlling speed and you can spin it very slowly for delicate work and yet it's a work horse. You can throw 25 lbs of clay no problem." - Pottery Redditor
