5 inch System Barrel Only (Mild Steel)

Part of the Baily System Extruder line to be used with either the System 1 Manual Drive Frame or the System 3 Power Drive Frame. Drive Frames must be purchased separately.

This is a 'mild steel' barrel designed to extrude medium size clay forms. Mild steel can rust over time and should be cleaned and dried after use. (Bailey Clay Extruder System Barrels can be removed from the Bailey Drive Frame for easy cleaning.) Stainless Steel is recommended if you are extruding porcelain or are concerned about rust. The 5" Barrel comes with (1) 1" Coil Die and (2) 5" x 6" Wood Blank Dies.

Extrusion Range: Multiple solid clay coils (single small solid coils will not extrude well from this barrel due to the amount of clay the barrel holds- the 4" Barrel is recommended for single solid clay coils), hollow clay tubes from 2" - 3" square or round.
Barrel Capacity: 17 lbs of clay
Die Plate Dimensions: 5" x 6"
