Vollrath 4780980 Details

Simplify your serving capabilities and easily maintain a color-coded HACCP plan with these Vollrath 4780980 Jacob's Pride 9 1/2" stainless steel scalloped tongs with purple allergen-free coated Kool-Touch® handle. The bold, purple plastic coating is designated for use with gluten- or allergen-free cooking and serving to reduce the risk of cross-contamination during kitchen use. By assigning particular colors for each specific application, commercial kitchens can help prevent foodborne illnesses by creating a safe and organized work environment.

Made of 20 gauge stainless steel, this versatile item boasts a heavy-duty construction that is built to last. The stainless steel end of the tongs is heat-resistant up to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. The tongs' plastic-coated handles are designed for use in any fast-paced setting and feature a special Kool-Touch® design, ensuring heat resistance up to 225 degrees Fahrenheit. Additionally, this coating provides your servers with a better grip, reducing the risk of dropping during use.

Featuring the latest in sanitary design, the handles are also complete with Agion antimicrobial technology to reduce microbial growth. The one-piece, springless, and no-pinch design eliminates unsanitary food traps while also making the utensil easier to clean and safer to use! A concave utility grip and uniquely-shaped teeth are perfect for completing a variety of kitchen tasks. Plus, the scallop-edged ends make it easy to move, rotate, and turn your food while cooking or serving. Because these tongs are superior to most, Vollrath stands behind the entire one-piece Kool-Touch® handled line with the Jacob's Pride lifetime warranty!

We needed some tongs that had the coating to help with regular tongs getting too hot. We like this tong because there is no spring you have to worry about breaking or falling off into food. Being able to get different colored ones is very nice as well!

The 9.5" Jacob's pride scalloped tong is the smallest "normal" sized JP tong. It'll fit in your kitchen drawer without too much trouble, and allow you to reach into your pots and pans while keeping your hands reasonably far away. Other than that, it's easy to clean and nice to look at. The yellow color is stunningly bright and pretty.

These Vollrath tongs are by far the best tongs we have used. They are nice and stiff and the handles are comfortable and cool. This 9-1/2" size works great to grab small things that aren't over cooking equipment. Would purchase again!

Bought this Vollrath green tongs to replace my 6” tongs that I found a little too short and stiff for my hand. I used this for my broccoli side dishes and I bough a few other tongs as well in different colors so I don’t get them mixed up for different uses

The Vollrath Jacob's Pride 9 1/2" Stainless Steel Scalloped Tong with Tan Coated Kool-Touch Handle is strong and durable. They hold up to the heat well and will not break if dropped. The coated handle prevents hand burns. This is great for grill, fryers and removing items from large pots. They are dishwasher safe.

Light weight stainless steel scalloped tong are nice because of they they are coated to prevent heat transfer to where you hold them. They are easy to use, and don't require a lot of pressure to keep closed.

I love this tong. The quality is top notch, the rubber coating on the handle is durable, and the hinge makes it surprisingly ergonomic. The 9 inch size is on the smaller side (12 inches is a more standard size) but if you are making a side dish or entree for just 1-2 people it's good to have. Also because it's metal you can stick it directly into the fire which is advantageous over plastic or silicone tongs.

You can't beat the quality of these Vollrath tongs. They have no spring to break like the other, cheaper tongs. These should last forever, the coating on the handle will probably go bad before the tongs do

These are perfect to put on our buffet to server our chicken. The regular all steel tongs would get too hot sometimes for our customers. With the coated handle, it provides a little protection from that.

Having used these tongs at work, I decided to get a pair for my personal use. They have been nothing but amazing in my time that I have used them. They are great for using on the grill as well as anything else. The one piece design means you won't need to rely on springs or rivets which may cause the tongs to become trash.
