TNF81722 Ceramic and Pottery Kiln

Formerly known as the TNF823

The TNF81722 continues one of Paragon’s most established ceramic kiln designs, previously known as the TNF823. Its new name makes the chamber configuration easy to recognize: 8 sides, approximately 17" wide, and 22" deep.

With its deeper firing chamber, 3" firebrick construction, and capability of reaching 2350°F / Cone 10, the TNF81722 provides the additional capacity needed for larger pottery and ceramic loads while maintaining the straightforward, dependable design of the TNF Series.

Sentinel TouchXpress Control

The TNF81722 is powered by Paragon’s Sentinel TouchXpress digital controller, combining simple operation with flexible firing control. Preloaded ceramic firing programs make common firings easy to start, while customizable programming by cone or °F/°C gives artists the flexibility to create and adjust their own firing schedules.

Built for Years of Firing

The TNF81722 incorporates several practical design details intended to make ownership and maintenance easier. Its drop-down control box is hinged at the bottom and opens forward after removing just two screws, providing convenient access to electrical components for service and maintenance.

A top row of 2" blank firebricks without element grooves provides a more durable surface in an area frequently exposed during loading and unloading, helping reduce the risk of accidental brick damage.

The reversible brick bottom is fully supported by a heavy galvanized steel base that wraps beneath the stainless-steel case, reinforcing the firing chamber and providing additional structural support.
