Cone 022 is the lowest melting cone and requires the least amount of heat to deform or bend. During firing, a cone softens and melts as it is heated. Cones used on the kiln shelf bend due to the effects of gravity pulling the tip down. This bending indicates the cone and the ware have received a specific amount of heat. It typically takes 15 to 22 minutes for cones to bend fully once they start bending. Each higher cone number requires more heat to bend.

It typically takes 15 to 22 minutes for cones\nto bend fully once they start bending. Each higher cone number requires\nmore heat to bend.

Cones used on the kiln shelf bend due to the effects of gravity pulling the tip down. This bending indicates the cone and the ware have received a specific amount of heat. It typically takes 15 to 22 minutes for cones to bend fully once they start bending. Each higher cone number requires more heat to bend. A cone 01 needs less heat treatment than cone 1 and cone 020 needs less than 019.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is important not to confuse the lower maturing cones and bars, whose numbers begin with an 0, with the higher cones and bars not containing this prefix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough cones do not actually measure temperature, cone bending behavior and temperature are related. Generally, the faster the firing, the higher the temperature required to bend the cone and the slower the firing, the lower the temperature required to bend the cone. The 6 o'clock position (90 angular degrees) is considered the end point of cone bending. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Orton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45113659195714,"sku":"OS9","price":16.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/5508\/2050\/files\/smallcones.jpg?v=1730298861"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/5508\/2050\/collections\/smallcones.jpg?v=1730382015","url":"https:\/\/www.sheffield-pottery.live\/collections\/small-cones-orton-pyrometric-cones.oembed","provider":"Sheffield Pottery Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
