Karaca Swiss Crystal Almond Cream Non-Stick Induction Stainless Steel Handle Sauce Pan, 16cm, Cream

Q: What grade of stainless steel is used in the handle?

A: Handle uses 18/10 stainless steel (304 grade). This grade resists corrosion in wet kitchen environments and maintains structural integrity under repeated heat exposure.

Q: What is the maximum safe oven temperature for this sauce pan?

A: Oven-safe up to 180°C when non-stick coating is not exposed to direct radiant heat. Handle construction tolerates standard finishing oven temperatures for sauce reduction.

Q: Does the non-stick coating require seasoning or oil treatment before first use?

A: No seasoning required. Wash with warm water and detergent before first use. Non-stick surface functions immediately without oil treatment.

Q: Can this pan withstand daily commercial kitchen wash cycles?

A: Hand wash recommended for non-stick coating longevity. High-temperature commercial dishwashers reduce coating lifespan. Wipes clean in under 30 seconds with warm water.

Q: Is the induction base compatible with low-power portable induction hobs?

A: Yes. Ferrous base layer activates on portable and fixed induction surfaces rated 1200W and above. 16cm diameter matches standard induction zone sizing.
