Specialist Crafts Raku Clay - 12.5kg
Product code: M035D
Product Description
Designed for the Raku process but is also suitable for large constructions, tiles, slabbing and hand building. This clay has superb thermal shock resistance. Firing range 900°C-1300°C. Use for earthenware and stoneware work. 12.5kg bag.
Please note: Not all clays are guaranteed to be impervious to liquids even if they are classed as stoneware. For pottery pieces intended to hold water or to be protected from frost damage also apply a glaze to reduce the chances water absorption, making sure to avoid pinholes or crazing of the glaze. Clays have their own firing ranges, some at stoneware temperatures but only very vitreous bodies like bone china and porcelain offer better resistance to water when fired to 1300 degrees centigrade, and even then there may be a slight moisture absorption. Always place vessels holding water on a mat to protect porous surfaces, such as wood, from damage.
