Stalgast 500 mm Stainless Steel Pot with Lid – 62.8 Litre Capacity

A heavy-duty stainless steel pot built for the demands of professional kitchens, this 500 mm diameter vessel holds 62.8 litres of stock, sauce or stew. The multi-layer encapsulated base spreads heat evenly from gas, electric, ceramic or induction hobs, preventing hot spots that can scorch or undercook large batches. Heat travels quickly through the aluminium core and is distributed across the entire cooking surface, so the contents simmer at a steady temperature without constant stirring.

To use, place the pot on the hob and add ingredients. The wide, flat base gives maximum contact with the heat source, while the 320 mm height keeps liquids contained during vigorous boiling. Ergonomic steel handles are welded at multiple points for strength and stay cooler than the pot body, allowing safe lifting even when the contents are at full boil. A matching stainless steel lid fits securely to retain heat and moisture, speeding up cooking and reducing evaporation.

The pot is constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel with a satin finish that resists fingerprints and scratches. The same material extends to the handles and lid, ensuring uniform durability. Dishwasher-safe construction simplifies cleaning after service, though the size may require a commercial dishwasher for thorough washing.

The 500 mm diameter footprint fits standard professional hobs and ranges, while the 62.8 litre volume suits bulk preparation of soups, stocks, sauces or braised dishes. The weight of the pot, combined with its sturdy base, keeps it stable on the hob during stirring or ladling.

Cleaning involves washing the pot, lid and handles with hot water and detergent, either by hand or in a dishwasher. The satin finish and stainless steel construction resist staining and corrosion, but regular descaling may be needed in hard-water areas to maintain heat conduction efficiency.

This pot is part of the Stalgast professional catering range, designed for intensive daily use in restaurants, hotels and large-scale food production.
