#6 Tile Clay is commonly used multipurpose kaolin. This material is chosen because it is relatively inexpensive option of kaolin and produces a gray white color when fired. While this kaolin is plastic, it does not have the same level of plasticity as EPK.
The full bag from the manufacturer is a 50# bag; white bag, red text labeled on side.
Stoneware favorite. Light sand color with fine specks. Excellent throwing body which enhances glaze colors and effects. There is no better all around throwing body available for the stoneware look. Fine speckling shows through glazes enhancing the piece.
Optimal results at cone 5

This clay is compounded to be a stoneware clay with specks that bleed through the glaze, giving the appearance of iron burning through, typical of reduction glazes and clays. A very popular throwing clay for production potters who want to add the speck dimension to their ware.

Grog is ground up ceramic that can be added to clay bodies to reduce shrinkage, warping, cracking, and impart visual and tactile texture. This particular grog is 10 mesh, making it a larger size of the material. Good for adding to more sculptural clay bodies.

Half of a high alumina 10" round shelf designed for small top-loading round kilns. Measures approximately 1/2" thick.
Pressed High Alumina kiln shelves are ideal for fast and high firings and exhibit exceptional durability to cone 11. Comparable to silicon carbide in strength but at a fraction of the cost. Pressed production of these shelves creates an extremely dense and strong shelf that resists warping. Offers extra protection against thermal shock due to rapid firing and cooling. The alumina content of these shelves is 11-12% higher than the cordierite shelves most commonly used by potters today. Great to use in Gas kilns. Not recommended for salt and wood firing. Also high alumina and corderite shelves are not recommended for raku firings due to extreme and uneven temperature. Please note: there is no warranty on refractories! There are many factors that can cause shelves to fail over which we have no control. It is the nature of the material. Other than shipping damages, no claims can be made on refractories.

Plastic clay for wheel and modeling. The addition of granular manganese gives a speckled surface. The ideal temperature for developing best color tone is cone 5. Good results may be expected in reduction or oxidation firing. Commonly referred to as "Chocolate Chip" around Bracker's (nickname originated by customer Darla Heard).
Suggested bisque temperature C/04.
Shrinkage: 12% at C/4, 12.5% at C/6.
Absorption: 4.5% at C/4, 2.5% at C/6.
