The Star-Max 648TCHSF 48" Gas Griddle with Thermostat Control is a compact yet powerful commercial cooking solution designed for precise temperature control and consistent performance. Featuring a 1" thick polished chrome griddle plate, this unit offers superior heat distribution, faster recovery times, and a smoother cooking surface that reduces food sticking and simplifies cleanup. The embedded modulating thermostat, positioned just 3/16" from the cooking surface, allows accurate temperature control from 150°F to 450°F with fast response to changes, ensuring consistent cooking results throughout service.
Built for durability and daily commercial use, the griddle features a heavy-duty stainless steel front with double-wall aluminized steel side panels for strength and heat efficiency. A 28,300 BTU aluminized steel burner per 12" of width ensures reliable, even heating across the cooking surface. The stainless steel bull nose front protects the thermostat knobs while providing a comfortable, cool-to-the-touch working area for operators.
Designed with ease of maintenance in mind, the unit includes a 3-1/4" wide front grease trough with grease chute and a large 4-1/2 quart stainless steel grease drawer for efficient cleanup. A 4-1/2" wrap-around stainless steel splash guard helps contain grease, while heavy-duty chrome-plated zinc knobs and adjustable nickel-plated steel legs ensure long-lasting performance and stability. The griddle operates on natural gas or propane and comes equipped with a convertible pressure regulator and LP conversion kit. Certified for safety and sanitation, it is approved for installation within 6" of combustible surfaces and is backed by a 2-year warranty.
