Firing range1000-1260
Chamotte portion40%

 

Body 468 is a light to cream-coloured firing stoneware quality with 40 % chamotte 0 – 0.5 mm. The recommended firing range is 1000 °C – 1260 °C.
The plastic body is very suitable for building-up medium-sized pieces. Despite the high proportion of chamotte, a high dry-bending strength is achieved by the structure of the chosen clays
