Stalgast Table Fork for Canteens and Bars 353051

A table fork built for the repeated use of canteens and bars, where cutlery must withstand constant handling without bending or tarnishing.

Table forks of this type rely on a simple lever principle: the tines concentrate the force of the hand into a small area, allowing the user to pierce and lift food without effort. The length of the handle gives the necessary leverage, while the balance between tine strength and handle flexibility prevents fatigue during long service periods. Stainless steel is chosen for its resistance to corrosion, staining and wear, ensuring the fork remains hygienic and presentable through frequent washing cycles.

To use, the operator simply grips the handle and applies downward pressure to pierce the food, then lifts and transfers it to the plate. The design minimises food adhesion, reducing the need for scraping or shaking during service.

The fork is made from 18/0 inox stainless steel, a grade that contains 18% chromium and no nickel, offering high corrosion resistance and a bright, durable finish. The single-piece construction eliminates crevices where food or bacteria could lodge, simplifying cleaning.

The 190 mm length provides a comfortable reach across standard plates and trays, while the weight and balance are tailored for rapid, repetitive use in high-volume settings.

Cleaning follows from the materials and construction: the smooth, non-porous surface can be washed in commercial dishwashers without risk of pitting or discolouration. Regular inspection for bent tines ensures continued performance, as damaged forks can snag food or injure diners.

This model is classified as canteen cutlery, positioned for bulk use in institutional and commercial foodservice environments.
