Blue Seal GP516-LS Evolution Series 900mm Gas Griddle on Leg Stand

The Blue Seal GP516-LS Evolution Series is a heavy-duty 900mm gas griddle mounted on a freestanding leg stand, purpose-built for high-volume commercial kitchens. Manufactured in New Zealand from 304 stainless steel, it features a 20mm thick smooth mild steel griddle plate spanning a generous 892mm x 530mm cooking surface, delivering exceptional heat retention and uniform heat distribution across the entire plate.

Powered by an 80MJ/hr thermostatic burner system with six burners and dual thermostats adjustable from 90 to 300°C, the GP516-LS provides precise zone temperature control suited to diverse menu items from breakfasts and burgers to seared proteins. The unit accepts both natural gas and LPG connections and includes a suite-matching undershelf, a 165mm splashback, and practical features such as push-button piezo ignition and adjustable feet with two additional rollers for easy repositioning during service or cleaning.

Key Benefits

• Dual independent thermostats spanning 90 to 300°C allow two separate cooking zones to run simultaneously at different temperatures, maximising menu flexibility during busy service periods.
• The 20mm thick griddle plate retains heat effectively across the full 892mm x 530mm surface, reducing temperature recovery time when multiple portions are loaded at once.
• An 80MJ/hr output delivers rapid heat-up and consistent cooking performance, keeping pace with the demands of high-turnover kitchens.
• Push-button piezo ignition allows quick, safe lighting without a match or lighter, reducing downtime at the start of service.
• Adjustable feet provide stable levelling on uneven floors, while two integrated rollers make it straightforward to move the unit away from the wall for thorough cleaning or servicing.
• A removable stainless steel grease drawer simplifies grease collection and disposal, supporting fast end-of-shift clean-downs.
• Top weld sealed plates prevent food debris and grease from penetrating plate joints, making surface cleaning quicker and more hygienic.
• Compatible with both natural gas and LPG via a 3/4" BSP male connection, making the unit suitable for a wide range of venue gas supply configurations.
• Optional ribbed or chrome mirror plate surfaces are available, allowing operators to choose the finish best suited to their cooking style and menu requirements.
