Perforated pizza peel Hendi 617830

This perforated pizza peel is made from gold-coloured anodised aluminium, with a pointed, microperforated blade. Its openings let excess flour fall through, while the shaped edge and surface help the blade slide beneath a pizza. These features support controlled handling from preparation to oven loading.

Where it is used

At a pizzeria bake station, the pointed edge helps the operator work the blade beneath a prepared pizza for loading or removal. The microperforated surface has less continuous contact with the pizza base, helping the peel slide underneath when the dough needs to be transferred from a bench to the oven.

Openings through the blade let loose flour fall away before loading. This helps limit flour carried onto the oven deck during repeated transfers, reducing the residue left on the surface between bakes. The peel therefore serves both the movement of the pizza and the practical task of keeping excess flour off the deck.

Care

Anodised aluminium has a treated surface with greater corrosion resistance than untreated aluminium, which is useful for a utensil handled in a working kitchen. The gold-coloured finish also makes the peel easier to distinguish visually among station tools when it is put down between tasks.

Flour and dough residue can collect around the blade openings and microperforations. Keeping those areas clear preserves the open paths that let excess flour pass through, so the blade continues to perform its flour-shedding role during subsequent pizza loading.

How to choose

The overall length and blade width help assess whether this peel suits the oven reach and the working area at the pizza station. Consider the full tool length when planning where it will be handled and stored, and the blade width when checking the space needed to bring the peel beneath a pizza.

The 330 mm blade width provides the working area for supporting a pizza during transfer, while the 1700 mm overall length gives the tool its reach. Together, these dimensions help match the peel to the operator’s loading position and available storage space without relying on a separate handle measurement.
