Nemco NEL0001 Easy Lettuce Cutter

The Nemco NEL0001 Easy Lettuce Cutter is a purpose-built commercial food prep tool that produces clean, precise 3/8" (9mm) slices without crushing or bruising the product. Its scalloped blade edges deliver cuts that prevent browning and rusting on lettuce edges, keeping salad ingredients fresher for longer and reducing waste in busy service environments.

Constructed from stainless steel and cast aluminium, the NEL0001 is engineered for durability and ease of use in high-volume commercial kitchens. The tool-free disassembly system sets it apart from competing units, allowing the blade assembly and pusher block to be separated quickly for thorough cleaning, supporting food safety compliance without slowing down kitchen workflow.
