Stainless steel & Silicone Sealing Gastronorm Container Lid GN1/6 | 816LS

Q: What stainless steel grade is used in the 816LS lid?

A: TurcoBazaar specifies commercial-grade stainless steel meeting CE certification requirements for food contact surfaces. The exact grade (304 or 430) is confirmed during order placement for operations with specific material traceability mandates.

Q: Does the silicone seal fit all GN1/6 container brands?

A: The gasket is sized for standard GN1/6 dimensions (176 × 162 mm internal). Minor rim profile variations between manufacturers may affect seal tightness. Test fit with your existing container stock before volume ordering.

Q: Can this lid withstand commercial dishwasher cycles?

A: Both stainless steel and food-grade silicone tolerate typical commercial dishwasher temperatures (60–85°C). Inspect gasket condition monthly in high-throughput operations. Replace if silicone shows hardening or delamination.

Q: Is the lid stackable when placed on filled containers?

A: Yes. The flat top surface allows vertical stacking of multiple sealed containers. Confirm total stack height remains within walk-in cooler shelf clearance limits to prevent toppling.

Q: What is the recommended replacement interval for the silicone gasket?

A: Gasket lifespan depends on daily cycle count and cleaning chemical exposure. Inspect for loss of elasticity every 6–12 months. Replacement gaskets are available from TurcoBazaar for extended lid service life.
