About Saggar Trays
Open Saggar Tray is kiln furniture designed in the form of a ceramic boxlike container widely used in the firing of pottery. It is used to enclose or protect the ware from high temperatures inside a kiln. It is also used to protect ware from open flame, gases, kiln debris, etc. It is designed from high quality alumina ceramic, mullite ceramic silicon carbide, cordierite ceramic and other materials to ensure to provide maximum strength as well as durability.
Features of Open Saggar Tray:
- Large in size for providing complete protection to products during firing
- Widely used in the domain of glost or biscuit firing of tableware
- Developed from semi-dry pressing and casting
- Available with good thermal shock resistant design

FAQs of Saggar Trays:
Q: How are Saggar Trays manufactured?
A: Saggar Trays are produced using a kiln-fired process with high alumina ceramics, ensuring durability, high temperature resistance, and excellent mechanical strength.
Q: What makes these trays suitable for high-temperature processes?
A: The trays high alumina ceramic composition provides exceptional thermal stability and heat resistance, allowing them to withstand temperatures up to 1700C, making them ideal for demanding furnace and firing operations.
Q: When should I use glazed versus unglazed Saggar Trays?
A: Glazed trays are best suited for processes requiring a smoother, non-porous surface, while unglazed trays offer increased permeability, which may be preferred in some firing or processing environments depending on material requirements.
Q: Where are these trays commonly used?
A: These trays are widely used in ceramic kilns, laboratories, industrial furnaces, and powder metallurgy operations throughout industries that require reliable, high-temperature materials handling.
Q: Can the dimensions and load capacity be customized?
A: Yes, Saggar Trays come in customizable dimensions and capacities, ranging from 1 kg up to 25 kg per tray, allowing them to meet specific equipment and process requirements.
Q: What are the key benefits of using high alumina ceramic trays?
A: High alumina ceramic trays offer excellent thermal shock resistance, low moisture absorption, non-reactivity with processes substances, and strong mechanical integrity, ensuring long service life in industrial applications.
Q: How do Saggar Trays improve the firing or furnace process?
A: Saggar Trays provide thermal protection and support for ceramics and other materials, enabling consistent heating, preventing contamination, and reducing product loss during high-temperature treatments.
