All of Wirtz Manufacturing’s furnaces are constructed of heavy-duty steel designed for minimal deformation, and include insulation around the entire furnace to achieve a stable and consistent temperature within the lead pot for one side to the other.

The Wirtz GF, GFR & GN series of lead pots are constructed with gas fired burners and temperature control systems. The GF, GFR & GN series lead pots are available in a number of different capacities.

GF Series: Round construction pots with atmospheric burner

Models:

• GF-2000(Pot 29′ ID x 12″ D )
• GF-3400(Pot 29″ ID x 16″ D)

GFR Series: Rectangular construction, gas fired type burner, safety gas control system, automatic temperature controls.

Models:

• GFR-5000(Pot 14″ x D x 28″ W x 36″ L)

GN Series: Rectangular construction, medium velocity nozzle mixing type gas burner, safety gas control system, and automatic temperature controls.

Models:
