Karaca Swiss Crystal Almond Cream Non-Stick Induction Stainless Steel Handle Sauce Pan, 14cm, Cream

Q: What steel grade is the handle constructed from?

A: The handle uses 304-grade stainless steel with riveted attachment to the pan body. This grade resists corrosion from repeated washing and maintains structural integrity under commercial kitchen conditions.

Q: What is the maximum load capacity for the 14cm pan?

A: The pan safely handles up to 500ml liquid volume with 2cm headspace for boiling. Structural load capacity is 2kg total weight including contents before handle stress becomes a factor.

Q: Does the Swiss Crystal coating require seasoning or pre-treatment?

A: No seasoning required. Wash with warm soapy water before first use to remove manufacturing residue. The coating is factory-applied and ready for immediate food contact.

Q: Can this pan withstand metal utensil contact during service?

A: The coating tolerates occasional metal utensil contact but sustained scraping degrades the surface. Silicone or wooden utensils extend coating lifespan in high-frequency use environments.

Q: Is the pan oven-safe for finishing techniques?

A: Handle material and coating specification limit oven use to 180°C maximum for short periods. Not designed for sustained oven exposure or broiler work.
