Product Information

Rods can be used in torchworking and kilnforming, and add an exciting difference to glass work. Drawn from compatible Bullseye Glass, each rod is approximately 42cm long and 4-6mm in diameter.  

Working Notes

Contains:

Copper

May react with:

Selenium, Sulphur

Cold characteristics: 

Slightly translucent opalescent.

Working Notes:

Torch: To avoid reduction, work in a neutral-to-oxidizing flame atmosphere. Can turn rust colour in reduction.

Kiln: At full fuse, capped or uncapped, the colour is consistent, even and pure. At slumping temperatures and low-tack fusing temperatures (1150-1250°F/621-677°C), grey clouding may occur (similar to Steel Blue 0146), especially where contamination from oils and/or cleaner is left behind during the cleaning process. Solution: cap this colour with clear or test for each specific application. The clouding can be erased from an uncapped piece by capping with clear glass and firing to a full fuse.

All our glass is COE90, Bullseye Glass compatible and suitable for applications such as glass fusing, glass casting and glass slumping (unless otherwise stated in the description).
