Skutt Wheels Have A Whole New Look And Feel
Skutt is proud to announce our upgraded pottery wheel line, with a fresh new look, even better performance, and a warranty as serious as the people who use them. Intelligent design is part of what we do to stay true to our mission statement, "We Help You Make Great Things." Our new red wheels speak to this vision with Skutt's continued commitment to exceptional engineering, quality, and customer service.
Bold Red Styling
Red is the color of action, energy, power, and passion. We can't think of a better color that matches the spirit and performance of our wheels. Skutt Wheels speak to this with the strongest motor in the industry and solid cast aluminum construction engineered and built in the USA. And now we back it up with a 10 year warranty.
Performance And Convenience For Everyone
Whether you're a production-level potter, seasoned hobbyist, classroom educator, or totally new to the art and craft of ceramics, our wheels are made with you in mind. Our industry-leading potter's wheels feature a convenient removeable wheel head, along with the largest and only one-piece, leak-free splash pan available.
Smooth Operation
Our new foot pedal technology allows for smoother transitions, giving ceramic artists the ability to express themselves with fine-tuned control. And the SSX controller offers even smoother and quieter operation.

New SMOOTH Foot Pedal Technology
We tasked our engineers to find a water tight, more responsive, longer lasting potentiometer and we think they hit a homerun. Newly equipped with frictionless nylon bushings, this pedal feels like an extension of your foot. Listen to Skutt Engineer Michael Walter talk about the science behind it.
Most Powerful
All Skutt Motors are Continuous Duty Motors. You can tell by their size they are different than other wheel motors…that is because they are. They are held to a higher standard and therefor have way more torque for their Horse Power rating than other wheels. We asked Herrick Smith to throw a 6 foot pot on our 1/3 HP motor and it showed no signs of straining. Want even more torque? Upgrade to our 1/2 or 1 HP models.
For years wheel companies have been trying to one up each other on "how much clay their wheel can center. The bottom line is, there is no scientific way to measure this. The skill of the potter and the plasticity of the clay will always vary. The only way to a wheels power scientifically is with an instrument that can measure torque at the wheel head. Well we did and Skutt wheels have the most torque.
Better Control – SSX Controller
These controllers utilize an extra-large capacitor to store power and then feather it in when you want to change speed. This is critical when throwing large pieces at slow speeds to avoid sudden surges that will damage your pots.
Due to the fact that our wheels have enough power we turn off a feature found on most wheel controllers called IR Comp. IR Comp is a setting on the controller that acts like cruise control in your car. We all have experienced that IR comp can be a little jerky at times. Our motors don't need it, so we do not turn it on.
Easy And Convenient
We have the only wheel head on the market that can be popped off with the flick of a wrist. On our removeable splash pan models this allows us to utilize a one-piece splash pan that won't leak and can be carried directly to the clay reclaimer in one piece without having to empty it and take it apart.
Reversible Motor
The Legend and Classic Wheels come with a reversing switch for all you lefties out there.
