Vollrath 4781240 Jacob's Pride 12" Stainless Steel Scalloped Tongs with Red Coated Kool-Touch® Handle

Great tongs if you need something to withstand high heats. I use my nylon-tipped ones more often, but if you're not concerned about scratching whatever your'e cooking on or you're dealing with higher temperatures, these are fantastic. The nylon coating keeps them cool, but I think the metal would only heat up if you were using them for extended periods near intense heat. My favorite feature is the lack of a hinge. It makes it impossible to pinch your palm when using them (as I often do with other tongs). They don't lock closed, which takes up more space but makes them easier to grab and use with one hand. If you're working over radiant heat, like a grill, you might want to go for something longer than 12" though.

Great tongs for saute or fry stations. I prefer spring loaded tongs for grill stations if you use grill weights, since they bear the weight a bit better, but these ones from Vollrath are a little sturdier than off brand models, and while they might not work as well as spring loaded for that particular application, I still tend to trust I won't drop a stack of steak weights. Coating held up very well.

What is good: high-quality silicone pens. Excellent grip. No rolling shutter and pinch. Another silicone on the end of the handle - does not allow to burn.

The 12" scalloped tong is the bigger of the 'normal' sized tongs that would work for the home chef. Like all the dipped Jacobs Pride tongs, the handles stay cool and don't harbor filth while cleaning. Overall it keeps your hands out of the heat and allows for long reach without being ridiculous

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 12" size works great to grab things on the charbroiler or griddle. Would purchase again!

These Vollrath 12 inch tongs have become my all time favorite tongs ever, it wasn't easy shelling out the extra money but after the hinged mechanical kept falling apart, we gave it a go, and here we are 2 years later and they're perfect.

I have used one pair now for the last two years and the are still in great shape. I would highly recommend these tongs for anybody working in a high volume kitchen.

These work as they should, Kool Touch handle is a real thing and it works. The coated portion is cracked at the edges now but they aren't falling off, my usage of these with high heat is HIGH

I like having these for certain applications where locking tongs may be too harsh on the product. Also less chance of breaking unlike locking tongs which the springs can break after only a few months. The recoil on these may give out eventually but at least you don't have to worry about employees inadvertently breaking them prematurely

Great product that I will be purchasing more of again soon. They hold up to the daily beatings and even when fishing stuff out of the fryer they stay cool to the touch unlike some of the all stainless ones.

It was important to us to be able to color co-ordinate where tongs would be used and what food type to go with. This really helps.

Purchased item to replace worn ones used on hot bar. The older ones were the same brand and held up to years of abuse in a commercial environment. These hold up very well.

Great tongs for any use. The hold up well to high heat and flame (minus the handle coating as expected). Handle does stay cool even when I know the metal tong area is hot.

These tongs are not that expensive the plastic layer makes it not hot for Example If there is a medal tong without the piece of plastic on something hot it would burn you but the plastic stops that

These are awesome scalloped tongs. The rubber coating does work, and there is no space for bacteria growth. Vollrath products are great, we buy Vollrath anytime we can. Some of the cheaper brands lose the stiffness quality of the tongs at the 'joint' if you will. But these are much sturdier. Pay the extra dollar or two, it's worth it.

Love these tongs! Bought this color so I have color coded tongs for different applications! I used rhis beige when to handle seafood products to prevent cross contamination

I love the cool touch tongs. I always have a set in my hands. they are not just a tool they are an extension of my hand!

Good quality and simple scalloped tongs. Can not beat the price for color coated kool touch handles either. Shipping was fast and managable if combined with a larger order.

Very good quality tong by Vollrath! This one comes with black coated handle! Easy to use and clean! We use it in conjunction to deep fryers! 4 stars!

These are great, especially if you work in a restaurant. They don't break unlike other tongs we have tried. I would highly recommend these tongs.
