Featuring a tapered design that provides even heat distribution, the Vollrath Wear-Ever saucepan is perfect for cooking sauces and soups, simmering liquids and more. Made from impact-resistant, energy-efficient aluminum, this durable saucepan features an extra-thick bottom and rim to help resist denting. The natural finish ensures uniform cooking and gives this saucepan a sleek appearance. An insulated Cool Handle rubber grip sleeve offers a comfortable grip and is best-suited for temperatures up to 450F, if used continuously, or 600F, if used intermittently. Attached with Ever-Tite rivets for exceptional security, the TriVent handle design helps reduce hand fatigue and heat transfer.
