Look for resistance wire by the spool and wind your own. Use caution here
because not all wire is equal. Try to find life expectancy at 1500 C spec
and compare.

We have a Barnstead electric bench top furnace. It uses a 1050 watt
heating element that measures 4 x 12 x 3/8 inches. The furnace goes to
1100 Celcius.

The element burnt out. Does anyone know where I could get a replacement
element without getting it from Barnstead ? Their prices are very high.

Having seen how this furnace is put together, I will probably build my
next furnace rather than buy one...
