Overview
The KITALWARE Stainless Steel Vegetable Strainer Colander is an essential prep tool for any professional kitchen that processes fresh vegetables on a daily basis. Designed with a fine-perforated bowl and stable base configuration, this colander efficiently drains water from washed vegetables, pasta, grains, and legumes while retaining solid food items. Manufactured from heavy-gauge SUS304 stainless steel, it resists denting under the weight of full vegetable loads and withstands the repeated impacts of daily washing and sanitization cycles. Available in a comprehensive size range from compact 320mm to large 800mm diameters, there is a model suited for every prep task scale.

FAQ
Q: What is the difference between the two thickness options?
A: The dual thickness rating indicates material gauge options. Thicker options (1.0mm) offer higher durability for heavy-use stations.
Q: Can this be used as a steamer insert?
A: Yes, these colanders can double as steamer inserts when placed inside appropriately sized pots with boiling water below.
Q: Is the perforation fine enough for rice or small grains?
A: For very small grains like quinoa or rice, we recommend verifying against your specific grain size. Most standard vegetables, pasta, and legumes drain effectively.
Q: Are replacement parts available?
A: These are single-piece units with no separate components. Full replacement units are stocked.
