Cone temperature conversion chart.
What are ceramic cone temperature chart.
Generally speaking the temperatures in the 108 f hour column are used when discussing ceramics porcelain and china.
Please note that the cone chart gives 3 different temperatures for each cone number.
Calculate kiln cone temperature for cone 022 to cone 10 based on the kiln s heating rate.
To refer to temperature which is seen in the chart below.
1623 f 882 c cone 02 approx.
They are useful in determining when a firing is complete if the kiln provided enough heat if there was a temperature difference in the kiln or if a problem occured during the firing.
1112 f 605 c to cone 013 approx.
Ware and glaze types.
Fast cooling at this temperature causes ware to crack.
Stoneware glaze some decals fire to cone 10.
History of kiln thermometers.
1566 f 850 c cone 012 approx.
Trapped water causes clay to explode so keep the kiln below 100ºc until all water has evaporated.
Cone 015 to cone 07 cone 013 approx.
Temperature equivalent chart for orton cones cone 022 14 pyrometric cones have been used to monitor ceramic firings for more than 100 years.

Bodies shrinks suddenly at 220ºc.
In the old days before thermocouples and pyrometers the only way to gage temperature was with a mercury thermometer but mercury thermometers would melt and explode when heated to 2000 degrees fahrenheit.
As discussed above the equivalent cone temperature depends upon how fast one gets to it.
