The Standard KilnShield is an essential kiln accessory designed to protect delicate firebrick, distribute body weight evenly, and ensure a tight, clean lid-to-brick seal—helping to extend the life of your kiln and prevent costly repairs. As the manufacturer-recommended solution, KilnShield is trusted by ceramic artists, educators, and studio technicians across the country.
 
This durable, ergonomic tool safeguards a 3-brick section from the friction and compression damage that often occurs during loading and unloading. The soft silicone top layer cushions clothing and reduces wear, while the angled design makes reaching into deep kilns easier—minimizing back strain and fatigue.
 
The Standard KilnShield is lightweight, easy to use, and simple to store. Hang it on the wall or mount it directly to your kiln’s control panel using our optional magnetic mount kit (sold separately).

Heavy-duty 16-gauge metal base
