Stable Surface for Centering Clay

When you throw clay on a bare wheel head, the clay can slip during centering. This pottery bat provides a textured surface that grips the clay from below. The bat stays attached to the wheel head with bat pins or by suction. For tall forms like vases, the bat prevents the clay from shifting as you pull up walls.

Reduces Bottom Warping

As clay dries, the bottom of a pot can warp if dried on a hard, non absorbent surface. This pottery bat allows moisture to escape evenly from the bottom of the piece. Remove the bat from the wheel with the pot still attached, and let the pot dry on the bat. Once leather hard, the pot comes off with a flat bottom that needs less trimming. For production potters, using multiple pottery bats saves trimming time.

Easy to Clean and Reuse

After throwing, rinse the pottery wheel bat under running water. Clay residue washes off without scrubbing. The PVA material does not absorb water, so the bat does not warp over time. Store bats stacked flat when not in use. These PVA bats dry quickly between uses. The set of 2 lets you throw one pot on the first bat while a second pot dries on the other bat. This pottery bat for wheel works for both hobbyists and professionals.
