Serve up your favorite dishes with the Tip Top Tongs from Tovolo! BPA-free silicone tips are stain-resistant and food-safe to create the best possible kitchen tool. The soft-touch silicone will not scratch pans, making it a gentle and safe choice for nonstick bakeware or cast iron cookware. Built-in resting foot tilts the silicone tips upwards and allows the handles to rest on the countertop. Keep drips off of kitchen counters and outdoor grills for a clean cooking experience. Keep the tongs closed between uses with the handy locking mechanism. Pull the ring to lock the pincers in the closed position, and push it in to release the arms. Locking mechanism makes these tongs compact and easy to use, as they can fit neatly in drawers or on spoon rests between uses, then be ready for action in a flash. Silicone is heat resistant up to 600 degrees, so it can handle foods on the stovetop, fresh out of the oven, or on the grill. The added grip makes it easy to serve pasta, grilled chicken, steak, stir-fry, fried foods or salad. The Tip Top Tongs have a built-in resting foot that lifts them up to keep your countertop clean. The silicone head provides an easy grip and is safe for non-stick pans. 13" overall length helps keep you a safe distance from heat, making them perfect for everyday use. Made of steel and BPA-free silicone and nylon. Dishwasher safe.
