The Ergo Chef 12-Inch Pro-Series Duo Tongs are the only kitchen tongs you'll ever need (well, besides our 9-inch tongs!). Constructed from heavy duty stainless steel and designed by a chef, the tongs open to 6-inches wide and can hold over six pounds of food (that would be one impressive steak on the grill). The silicone side is safe for non-stick pans and is heat resistant to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. The stainless steel side is great for extra grip and for use on aluminum or steel pans. The silicone side of the ergonomic angled head is great for picking up delicate foods. The slot along the head of the tongs allows for easy draining of liquids when boiling or deep frying foods… no mess! Features a comfort non-slip grip and heavy duty spring for precise control. Top rack dishwasher safe. Proudly designed and tested in the USA by Ergo Chef, LLC.
