Cobcraft A1 Kanthal Elements — Shaped Replacement Elements for Cobcraft Kilns
Our Cobcraft‑shaped replacement elements are manufactured using genuine Kanthal A1 resistance wire — the official Swedish‑made grade, not lower‑grade imported wire. Each element is wound and shaped to match the exact specifications of the original Cobcraft kiln design, ensuring correct resistance, reliable heating, and long service life.
These elements are made specifically for Cobcraft octagonal and square kilns and are shaped to fit the brick grooves precisely for easy installation and consistent firing performance.
