Blue Seal G518C-LS Evolution Series 1200mm Gas Cooktop with 300mm Griddle – Leg Stand

The Blue Seal G518C-LS Evolution Series combines six high-output open burners with a 300mm smooth mild steel griddle on a robust leg stand, delivering a total gas rating of 188 MJ/hr across the cooking surface. Manufactured in New Zealand from 304 stainless steel, this 1200mm unit is engineered for the demands of busy commercial kitchens, offering a fully modular design that integrates seamlessly into a matched Blue Seal suite.

Safety and ease of operation are built in from the ground up, with flame failure protection on every burner, push-button piezo ignition on the griddle, and heavy-duty reinforced control knobs featuring clear, non-fade markings. The leg stand includes adjustable feet and two additional rollers for flexible placement and straightforward repositioning, while a framed top allows direct connection to adjacent cooktop units.

Key Benefits
