All-Clad Locking Tongs

Because these tongs are made of heavy-gauge stainless steel, they can scratch non-stick surfaces if used aggressively. We recommend using them primarily with stainless steel, cast iron, or enameled cookware to avoid damaging delicate coatings.

The tongs feature a simple, secure locking mechanism that keeps the arms closed when not in use. This allows you to store them compactly in a drawer or hang them on a utensil rack without them splaying open.

Yes, these tongs are heat-resistant up to 600°F. They are designed to handle high-heat searing and grilling tasks without warping or compromising the integrity of the metal.

Yes, the stainless steel construction is fully dishwasher safe. You can place them in the dishwasher for easy cleanup, though hand washing is always an option if you prefer to maintain the finish over time.

At 12 inches long, these tongs provide a safe distance from heat sources like deep fryers or stovetop pans. They offer enough reach for most standard kitchen tasks, though you may want a longer pair for deep charcoal grill pits.
