Contact grill Hendi 263600

This single contact grill combines a ribbed upper plate with a smooth lower plate, giving a café or small-kitchen hot-food station two contact finishes for grilling and reheating. The cooking surface suits focused, portion-by-portion work with bread, meat, sausages or vegetables.

Where it is used

Use the grill for short runs of hot food where one station handles different items. Staff can choose between ribbed and smooth plate contact without changing equipment. The upper plate lifts by its heat-resistant handle and stays in position through the spring mechanism, leaving staff free to load and handle food without holding the plate open.

Rubber feet help limit movement as staff load and operate the grill. The switch indicator and preheating light make power and warm-up status visible at the station.

Connection and installation

The 230 V supply is a common single-phase configuration for planning a suitable supply point. Rated power is lower than that of most products in this category, giving the grill a comparatively modest nameplate load to account for when allocating electrical capacity among kitchen equipment.

Care

The enamelled cast-iron plates have a smooth surface that is straightforward to clean after grilling or reheating. Rear and side edges help keep residue within the lower plate area, while the removable drip tray can be taken out separately to clear collected drips. The supplied grill brush gives staff a dedicated tool for cleaning the plates.

How to choose

The overall dimensions help establish the counter footprint needed for the grill. Its weight is lower than that of most products in this category, making it easier to reposition when clearing or reorganising a worktop.

The adjustable thermostat lets the operator set heat for different grilling tasks, including bread, meat, sausages and vegetables. The compact cooking surface suits a focused portion-grilling station rather than large-batch work.
