Our throwing bat  are designed to provide the best possible stability and durability for potters. They allow easier turning of plates or large parts. Made from 18mm-thick exterior pine plywood, they outperform MDF or PVC alternatives in terms of strength and durability.

Two diameters available
  
302 mm
  
352 mm
These dimensions are compatible with the majority of commercially available pottery wheel.

A reliable, adaptable fastening system
Our bat system are drilled on the underside to accept 2 M6 CHC BTR hexagonal screws with wing nuts (holes spaced 250 mm between axis). Fixing kit included.
For those who don't want to drill their wheel base, we've developed a no-drill side-mounting system. This device, which operates by pressing screws onto the edge of the wheel base, is available as an option and can be added at any time. The use of batmate in addition to this system further enhances fastening.

A true cabinetmaker's finish
We apply three finishing coats:
  
1 coat of sealer to stabilize the surface
  
2 coats of food-safe worktop varnish
These steps guarantee long-lasting protection and a surface with good clay adherence.
