Light Coral Striker 1205

Transparent Bullseye Sheet is available in 2mm(thin) or 3mm thickness.

The standard sheet in 3mm is approximately 280 x 250 x 3mm  (the dimensions may vary slightly depending on the sheet)

The standard sheet in 2mm (thin)  is approximately 250 x 210 x 2mm  (the dimensions may vary slightly depending on the sheet)

Compatible with COE090. 

Cold Characteristics

Striker. Transparent clear. On edge, resembles Clear Transparent (001101). Note the image shows final colour after heat - so not recommended for leadlight unless you want to put the sheet in the kiln first.

Contains

Lead

May React With

Selenium, Sulfur

Working Notes

Color usually deepens on firing. Possible dark interface reaction with selenium and/or sulfur glasses (000137, 001122, 001125, 000124, 000125, 001137, 001437). Less viscous (softer) than most other glasses. Some gold-bearing striking glasses, like this one, should be fired with a 2 hour hold at 1225°F during the initial stages of the firing cycle. If fired without this hold, they may not strike at all, or they may strike but appear spotty and have a blue-brown cast, as opposed to the desired target color. This full-fuse schedule effectively strikes these glasses:

* The initial rate of heat is not a critical factor in successfully striking gold-bearing glasses. Choose an initial rate of heat appropriate to the scale and design of the project that you are firing.

** Remainder of cycle depends on the thickness of the piece. Consult the Bullseye Annealing Chart. For color-sensitive projects, we recommend testing the cycle you plan to use by fusing a small sample of a similar setup in the same kiln as the project to best predict final color results.
