Tile Cranks
Tile Cranks are used to support tiles in the kiln. The uprights (legs) slot into a base/cover at either end producing a frame into which the tiles are placed. Ledges protruding from the uprights support the tiles. Use our refractory cement to give a secure and rigid assembly. Two base/covers and either three or four uprights as indicated are needed for each set.
Separate legs can be purchased.
