Bullers Rings

Bullers Rings provide the only accurate and measurable means of assessing kiln performance. Like the products themselves, the rings react to the effects of time and temperature, the combined effects of which produce a shrinkage in the ring. This can be accurately measured on a simple gauge to determine the heat treatment to which it has been subjected, and which is shown by single number.

In addition to monitoring kiln performance, Bullers Rings can be used to map the thermal performance of a kiln by placing them at various points across the setting. They can also be used to monitor the progress of a firing by withdrawing rings from the kiln at intervals measuring the contraction.
