Orton Cones |
| Pyrometric cones measure heat-work (the effect of time and temperature). Pyrometric cones are slender pyramids made from about 100 carefully controlled compositions. Each cone number is unique in measuring temperature within a small temperature range (less than 30°C). Cones measure the amount of heat absorbed. As the cone nears its maturing range, it softens and the tip begins to bend, drawn down by the influence of gravity. |
| $7.70 for each box of 50 bars |
$7.70 for each box of 25 cones |
$7.70 for each box of 50 cones |
Large Cones $10.19 each box of 50 cones |
| Orton also provides a computer program to relate bending behavior of cones to temperature, heating rate and hold time. Large and Self-Supporting cones are used as witness cones to monitor the firing and verify temperature uniformity. |
