Slab Rollers & Extruders that Work!!!

 For over 35 years we have manufactured a full line of the highest quality slab rollers, extruders, mold presses, shelf trucks, throwing bats and several other products. Our company is unmatched in the quality of its products, customer service and attention to detail. We are proud of our work and we care about the people we serve.

Slab Rollers

    North Star Slab Rollers are made in two series: The Standard series used by hobby potters and students everywhere and the massive Super series, at home in industrial, institutional and production settings around the world.

Standard Extruders & Dies

    North Star extruders do not look like or work like any others.  They are designed to be simple, safe and inexpensive.  Both models feature a 4 inch square steel barrel tapered at the top for easy loading.   Each comes with a long extension handle to give extra leverage for small extrusions or stiff clay.

Big Blue Extruders & Dies

    The North Star Big Blue Extruder does not look like or work like any others.  It is designed to be simple and safe yet powerful. This model features a 6 x 6 x 12 inch aluminum barrel that holds a full 25 pound pug of clay and can produce extrusions up to 4-1/2 x 4-1/2 inches, without an expansion box.

Bats

    Standard drill is two holes 10 inch center-to-center to fit Brent, new Pacificia, Soldner and many others. Can be drilled for old styles of Brent, Shimpo or any other wheel on request.

Shelf Truck

    North Star Shelf Trucks are moderately priced but of industrial quality.  They were originally designed for potters, but they are now used in print shops, machine shops, warehouses, hospitals and factories around the world.  These trucks are a wonderful addition to any studio or school and will last a lifetime with almost no care.

Extruder Dies

    These dies fit into our standard and Big Blue (w/Die Adapter) Extruders. They come in many shapes and sizes. These 4" dies are precision cut using a CNC Mill.

Tile Press

    Make tiles up to 5-1/2" - any shape with any raised or impressed decoration. Also do switch plates, jewelry, small plates, saucers, shallow bowls and cups, handles, knobs, electronic porcelain parts and more at up to 120 pcs/hr. Make your own dies or custom dies quickly available.

Work & Glazing Tables

    Need more room in your studio? These work & glazing tables are just what you need! Table frames are 14-gauge steel.  Tabletops are of moisture-resistant Medex with a melamine surface or choose a granite top instead.

PortaRollers

    Combine the North Star 18" Standard slab roller with a specially designed set of Table Toppers and you have the North Star PortaRoller.  We designed the PortaRoller for ceramic arts teachers who are moving from classroom to classroom and for studio potters who need a fully functional slab roller but have limited space.
