Product Description
Overview
The Southbend TKS-60 is a purpose-built 60-gallon tilting kettle strainer designed for busy commercial kitchens that demand speed, consistency, and durability. Whether you’re launching a new restaurant or scaling a caterer operation, this strainer integrates with standard 60-gallon tilting kettles to remove solids, separate stocks, and finish sauces with a clean pour-lip that reduces mess and speeds service. As part of your kitchen buildout, the TKS-60 is a precise, low-complexity accessory that pays back in faster prep times and fewer rejected batches.

- Heavy-Duty Stainless Construction — Durable stainless steel resists corrosion and stands up to daily commercial cleaning and use.
- Fast Drainage & Fine Straining — Efficiently separates solids from stocks and sauces, delivering consistent texture and finished product quality.
- Simple Mounting & Operation — Low-tech, reliable interface that minimizes training time for staff during your restaurant opening.
- Sanitary Design — Smooth surfaces and easy-to-clean geometry support health-code compliance and sanitary workflows in a foodservice environment.
- Compatibility — Works with most Southbend/Middleby 60-gallon kettles and many other manufacturers’ tilting kettles when standard pour-lip dimensions are used.
