The extra-thick construction delivers a powerful, firm spring action that maintains its tension through the heaviest continuous use in high-volume commercial food service environments. At 16 inches, it provides the reach needed to safely and comfortably work deep hotel pans, large chafing dishes, and full-size buffet containers without risk of dropping or spilling heavy food items. This is the tong designed for operations that need maximum reliability under maximum load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstructed entirely from stainless steel with no plastic components, the UT-16HT handles heat, heavy loads, and repeated high-temperature dishwasher cycles without weakening or warping. The extra-heavy gauge resists bending even when handling dense proteins, whole roasted items, or large vegetable portions. For hotel banquet operations, high-volume catering, and institutional food service, the Winco UT-16HT delivers the strength and reach that demanding professional kitchens depend on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16\" extra-heavyweight 1.2mm stainless steel utility tong — maximum commercial durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThick gauge produces powerful, firm spring action for heavy food items and dense proteins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16\" reach for deep hotel pans, large chafing dishes, and full-size buffet containers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-stainless construction — no plastic parts, heat-resistant for hot service lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResists bending under heavy loads — built for institutional and high-volume use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully dishwasher safe for consistent sanitation through repeated commercial cycles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Winco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51362706489640,"sku":"UT-16HT","price":3.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5151\/1092\/files\/winco-winco-ut-16ht-16-ss-utility-tong-extra-heavyweight-12mm-ut-16ht-9833956.jpg?v=1781249658","url":"https:\/\/www.nishienterprise.com\/products\/16-s-s-utility-tong-extra-heavyweight-1-2mm","provider":"Nishi Enterprise Inc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
