Southbend CH-30F 30-Gallon Spring-Assisted Kettle Cover | Durable Stainless Replacement

Overview

The Southbend CH-30F is a purpose-built 30-gallon, spring-assisted cover engineered for commercial kettles used in high-volume foodservice environments. When you're opening a new restaurant, every piece of restaurant equipment must contribute to speed, safety, and consistency—this kettle cover does exactly that. It reduces heat loss, protects contents from contamination, and provides controlled, one-handed operation so your cooks can focus on production rather than wrestling with heavy lids. While the CH-30F itself is not listed as NSF certified, it is designed to integrate seamlessly into NSF-certified kettle systems and complements a compliant kitchen buildout.

Key Features

• 30-gallon capacity match — Precisely fits 30 gal Southbend kettles for secure coverage and optimal heat retention.
• Spring-assisted hinge — Smooth, controlled lift and lowering to reduce operator fatigue and enhance safety during busy service.
• Commercial-grade stainless steel — Durable, corrosion-resistant construction that stands up to daily washing and heavy use.
• Quick-access design — Enables faster ingredient addition and monitoring, speeding up cook cycles and helping you open on schedule.
• Retrofit-friendly mounting — Designed to install on compatible Southbend kettles, minimizing modification time during kitchen installation.
• Low maintenance — Simple hinge mechanics for fewer service calls and reliable operation over years of use.
• Safety-focused — Controlled descent reduces risk of sudden closure and potential injury.

Built for Commercial Success

This cover is built with the long run in mind—commercial kitchens demand components that tolerate constant cycles of use, cleaning, and high temperatures. The CH-30F's stainless construction and simple spring hinge mean fewer failures and a predictable lifecycle, protecting your investment and reducing downtime. When you partner with Concept Services, we inspect and verify fitment and condition before delivery, and our installation teams ensure the cover is mounted and adjusted to factory tolerances so it performs reliably from day one.
