Introducing the Olympic Kilns Quatro 16, the perfect choice for artists who need a kiln larger than the Square 146GFE but want to avoid the larger footprint of the Square 186GFE. With a spacious 16.5″ wide x 16.5″ deep by 6″ high chamber, this kiln provides just the right amount of room to expand your creative horizons in glass fusing and precious metal clay (PMC) work. And, you can choose from THREE different loading options: top load only, clamshell lid only, or BOTH!
Designed for Versatility and Precision
The Quatro 16 is designed to fire up to 1700°F, making it ideal for a wide range of applications including glass fusing, forming, and heat-treating, as well as creating intricate PMC jewelry. Whether you're working on large-scale glass projects or detailed metal clay pieces, this kiln delivers consistent and reliable results.
Dual-Element Control for Customized Firing
Equipped with both a lid element for the fusing stage and a body element for controlled ramping and annealing, the Quatro 16 gives you precise control over your firing process. The intuitive selector switch allows you to choose which element to activate, ensuring optimal power usage and consistent results, all while running on a standard 120-volt outlet.
Simple and Reliable Digital Control
The Quatro 16 comes standard with the Bartlett Instruments Digital KilnStar controller, offering user-friendly programming to easily set your ramp/hold schedules. For those who require more advanced features, upgrading to the Genesis Touchscreen controller provides additional ramp-hold user programs, delay start, preheat, skip step, and more, ensuring every firing is executed with precision.
Built for Durability and Ease of Use
Constructed with a durable stainless steel jacket and mounted on an 18” tall metal stand, the Quatro 16 is designed for long-lasting performance. The model also includes essential features such as a pilot light, peephole plug, and lid wedge, making it easy to use and maintain. Plus, it comes with a comprehensive instruction manual and a two-year warranty, so you can create with confidence.
