NBSiC Under Counter Setter
NBSiC Under Counter Setter is a Nitride Bonded Silicon Carbide (NSiC) fixture shaped to hold under-counter basin sanitary ware pieces in the correct firing position within the kiln. Its higher strength and thermal conductivity versus cordierite setters allow it to withstand demanding firing schedules while maintaining the ware's shape and positioning through repeated cycles.
Product Details
NBSiC Under Counter Setter is a Nitride Bonded Silicon Carbide (NSiC) fixture shaped to hold under-counter basin sanitary ware pieces in the correct firing position within the kiln. Its higher strength and thermal conductivity versus cordierite setters allow it to withstand demanding firing schedules while maintaining the ware’s shape and positioning through repeated cycles.
Placed on the kiln car or shelf to seat under-counter basin ware during firing — supporting the piece’s profile and preventing slumping or distortion, with the added strength and heat transfer of NBSiC suited to higher-load or higher-throughput firing setups.
