GACO Raku Burner Kit

A burner kit is specially made for 50 to 90 Litres (internal with ceramic blanket) sized raku kiln builds.

The burner is made from cast iron, which although very robust and durable, could be prone to rust, so keep it dry. This burner produces a greater flame but with proportionally quieter noise than the Segas burner. This may be a consideration if you are using at home with proximity to neighbours.

For further information and products associated with raku read our article on our knowledge base.

• The burner has a fine brass needle hole with a flame retention feature within a single casting.
• Flame failure protection has also been added.
• Along a ½ ‘’ American IPT thread a shutter moves to adjust air flow.
• At the end of the burner is a NPTT to BSPT adapter, with various reducers to allow a NPT isolation tap which ends in a 3/8’’ BSPM left-hand thread.
• The hose is 3m long and armoured with overbraid, and crimped 3/8’’ BSPF swivels at each end.
• 0.5 to 2 bar variable pressure gas regulator complete with pressure gauge (manometer) and a POL fitting for connection to the bottle, which is a 3/8’’ BSPM left-hand thread.

Don’t forget to tighten the nut and test all joins with a leak detection liquid.

We strongly advise that you attend a course to learn how to use a burner with propane safely.

There are risks from burns and fire from incorrect use of the burner to breathing difficulties and allergic reactions from propane. You should carry out your own risk assessment before a firing.
