Sieve 30 cm

30 cm Sieve / Glaze Strainer is an essential piece of equipment in a ceramic laboratory and for preparing glazes/slips. This compact size is designed for versatile use and serves the following main functions:

• Glaze & Slip Strainer: Used for straining glazes or engobes/slips to remove impurities, dust, or undissolved clumps of clay/chemicals. This helps make the glaze smooth and consistent.

• Prevents Defects on Workpieces: Straining the glaze before dipping, brushing, or spraying helps reduce problems such as grainy surfaces, pinholes, or uneven color after firing.

  Ideal Size for Experimental Work: With a diameter of 10 cm, it is perfectly suited for straining small amounts of glaze, such as for coating small pieces, decorative painting, or mixing experimental glaze batches in small cups or beakers, without losing too much glaze remaining on the sieve.

Brief Usage Instructions: Place the sieve on a receiving container. Pour the glaze through the sieve. If the glaze is viscous, a soft brush or rubber spatula can be used to gently scrape it to help the glaze flow through more easily.
