Heating recommendations for Clay Graphite Crucibles

The crucible, after being installed in the furnace should be heated up slowly to a temperature of 200°C (392°F) over a period of 2 hours, to eliminate any moisture that may be present.

Next, these crucibles should be heated up to a temperature of 600°C (1112°F) on low power, before the full heating rate is used to reach 950°C (1742°F).

Clay Graphite crucibles used in a melting operation can be continuously heated up on full power until working temperature is reached. The crucible is then ready to be charged with care.

When using Clay Graphite crucibles for holding, the temperature of 950°C (1742°F) should be reached and held for approximately 1 hour. This ensures even melting of the glaze with the additional antioxidation coating, which is essential to achieve the maximum possible crucible life.
