The Paragon FiberFuse-16 kiln fires up to 1700°F (926°C) and operates on a common 120-volt household outlet and uses only 1,800 watts. That is the wattage of many hair dryers used in homes throughout America. The heat is safely kept inside the kiln even at its highest temperatures. The kiln uses efficient ceramic fiber insulation and is easy to operate.

Exciting Projects You Can Make
Create vibrant, color-saturated fused and slumped glass in the 120 volt FiberFuse-16 ceramic fiber kiln. Own one of these kilns, and you can experiment with new glass designs to your heart’s content. Use the FiberFuse-16 to experiment with reactive glass colors, screen printing on glass, and glass clay. Even fire decals. You will enjoy painting not just with liquid colors but with glass frit and stringers. Enjoy the element of surprise that glass offers.
Light Weight Ceramic Fiber
Ceramic fiber, the space-age insulation in the FiberFuse-16, absorbs less heat than firebrick kilns do. For this reason, the Paragon FiberFuse-16 kiln fires and cools faster than larger firebrick models. Use the FiberFuse-16 to fire small, quick projects at art centers, college classes, and even engineering laboratories. Test batches of glass pendants or earrings before making large quantities in your main studio kilns. Once you own the FiberFuse-16, test-firing new ideas will be more convenient than ever.
The high-tech ceramic fiber lid, walls, and bottom are 2” thick. The sides are wrapped in a protective steel case. A deluxe steel top with welded corners covers the lid. The lightweight lid is easy to lift with one hand. The wooden lid handle stays cool even during extended firing and annealing times.
Surface-Mounted Sidewall Heating Elements
The FiberFuse-16 features new surface-mounted sinusoidal “wavy” elements. This eliminates element grooves, thereby increasing the efficiency of the wall insulation for faster heating. Heat distribution in the FiberFuse-16 is so even that the kiln can fire glass without lid elements.
Built-in Stand
The built-in stand, complete with mar-proof rubber feet, raises the kiln off the work surface. Raise the kiln to a convenient height by placing it on a fire-proof steel table.
Heavy Duty Electrical Components
The control panel is slotted for air circulation, so the electrical components stay cool even during long temperature holds. Turn off the kiln with the convenient toggle switch. Costly heavy-gauge nickel-plated copper wiring is covered with high temperature glass-braided insulation. And, of course, the FiberFuse-16 is made in America by skilled craftsmen and women at our Mesquite, Texas factory. We are proud to support the American worker.
Lid Safety Switch is Standard
The Paragon FiberFuse-16 kiln ships with a safety switch that shuts off the power to the elements when the lid is opened. The temperature controller remains powered with the lid open and automatically resumes firing when you close the lid.

We have been using our new kiln for about two months now, and we are very happy with it. It has allowed us to fuse glass at home in a very small space, and it's good to know that it will be easy to move in future when we have a new studio. The kiln has worked as expected and we've been happy with the results when fusing our projects. We opted for the mercury relays and the smart controller and think that both are well worth it.
We're grateful for your valuable feedback! Your input means a lot to us. Should you have addition...
Exactly what I imagined and works like a dream. Way to go Paragon and Kiln Frog!!
Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback! Your insights are important to us. If you...
I decided to move up from microwave kilns to the real thing. I wanted one that would meet my needs now and for the foreseeable future. I really like the Fiberfuse rather than one that uses firebricks and heats from the top. The learning curve is a bit steep but Paragon tech assistance was helpful.

This kiln is an absolute gem! It's perfect for a hobbyist as no special wiring is needed, can be placed on a rolling metal cart for convenience in my shared studio space, and is large enough to create beautiful platters or fire multiple smaller pieces at once. The step up for the touch screen controller was totally worth it -- I think it's actually easier to program than my microwave. Thank you KilnFrog and Paragon!
Very well packaged for delivery. (Driver also helpful fellow).
Easy to set up and great fun! Thanks for keeping it easy in hard times. Stay safe and strong!
