Clay Ateliermassen 2502 – light clay with fine fireclay (25%)

Ateliermassen 2502 is a high-quality, light-fired ceramic mass enriched with 25% fine-grained fireclay (0–0.2 mm). The addition of fireclay makes the clay more stable during handling and firing, while also maintaining high plasticity, making it suitable for both turning and the construction of small hand-made forms.

Characteristic:

• Color after firing: from white to cream (depending on temperature)

• Application: turning, hand forming

• Form: plastic clay, packed in 10 kg bags

• Firing temperature range: 1000–1280 °C

• Fireclay content: 25%, grain 0–0.2 mm

• Shrinkage on drying: approx. 6%

• Shrinkage when fired at 1280 °C: approx. 6%

• Water absorption after firing at 1280 °C: approx. 1.5%

This is an excellent choice for those looking for a compromise between the smoothness of the mass and its greater durability thanks to the content of fine fireclay.
