Concave Bottom Pan is a pan with a concave bottom. The pan is silvery white, made of stainless steel, and has two symmetrical metal handles. The inner bottom of the pan is concave towards the center, forming a concave surface. This unique concave bottom design distinguishes it from common pans. It comes in a variety of sizes and heights to suit different cooking needs and heating equipment such as stoves.

Concave Bottom Pan Parameters:

Concave Bottom Pan Features:

1. Solid and durable: The Concave Bottom Pan is made of stainless steel with a thickness of 1.2 mm. The tensile strength of stainless steel can reach 500-1000 MPa, and the yield strength is between 200-500 MPa. This high strength makes it less likely to deform or break when subjected to heavy objects and frequent use. For example, when quickly stir-frying ingredients or stirring vigorously with a spatula, the pan can still maintain a stable shape to ensure a long service life.

   
   

2. Good thermal conductivity: The thermal conductivity of stainless steel is about 16-20 W/(m・K), and the thickness of the Concave Bottom Pan is 1.2 mm, which means that heat energy can be quickly transferred to all parts of the pan. When heated on the stove, the heat can be evenly distributed on the concave bottom and the wall of the pan, so that the ingredients are heated evenly. For example, when frying fish, all parts of the fish body can be heated at the same time, reducing local scorching and ensuring the cooking effect.

   
   

3. Precise size: Concave Bottom Pan is available in a variety of specifications, such as CD40040 with a diameter of 400 mm and a height of 90 mm; CD57030 with a diameter of 570 mm and a height of 105 mm. This precise size design can meet different stove sizes and cooking needs. In commercial kitchens, you can choose the right pot according to the batch size of dishes and the size of the stove to ensure cooking efficiency and quality; in home kitchens, small models are suitable for frying eggs, and large models are suitable for frying steaks and other large ingredients.

   
   

4. Lightweight and easy to hold: Although the Concave Bottom Pan is large in size, the thickness of stainless steel is 1.2 mm, and the overall weight is relatively light. Taking the 570 mm diameter model as an example, the weight is usually around 2-3 kg. With two metal handles, the connection between the handle and the pot body has been reinforced to withstand the weight of the pot body and a certain amount of external force. When pouring hot oil or stir-frying ingredients, it can be easily lifted and operated stably to reduce the burden of cooking.

   
   

5. Not easy to rust: The stainless steel material of Concave Bottom Pan usually contains more than 10.5% chromium. Chromium can form a dense chromium oxide film on the surface, which can effectively isolate oxygen and moisture and prevent the pot from direct contact with corrosive substances. Even if it is used for a long time in a humid kitchen environment, or frequently in contact with acidic ingredients such as ketchup, lemon juice, etc., as long as it is cleaned and dried in time, it can keep the appearance bright and new, avoiding damage to the pot or food safety problems caused by rust.

   
   

6. Smooth inner wall: The inner wall of Concave Bottom Pan is finely polished, and the surface roughness value is low, usually between Ra0.4 - 0.8 μm. This smooth surface allows the ingredients to slide smoothly in the pot, reducing the risk of sticking to the pot. When cooking, the ingredients can be easily stir-fried and it is not easy to leave residue; when frying meat, the gravy is not easy to adhere to the pot wall. Even if there is a small amount of residue, it can be removed by wiping it lightly with a damp cloth, which greatly reduces the difficulty of cleaning.

   
   

7. Reasonable handle design: The two metal handles of Concave Bottom Pan are reasonably designed and installed at the widest part of the two sides of the pot body.
