PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Support,Basket , 14-1/4X12-1/2" for Pitco Part# P9800-76
Details
The Pitco Support,Basket , 14-1/4X12-1/2" is a direct replacement basket support rack for Pitco commercial deep fryers measuring 14-1/4 inches by 12-1/2 inches, designed to rest inside the fry vat and provide a stable platform on which fry baskets sit during the immersion phase of the frying cycle. By supporting the basket above the heating tubes or elements at the bottom of the vat, it prevents direct contact between the basket wire mesh and the heating surfaces, which could cause localized food scorching and damage to both the basket and the heating elements. Using the correct support with the 14-1/4 by 12-1/2-inch dimensions ensures proper fit within the designated Pitco vat size.
Over time, basket supports warp from the combined effects of sustained high oil temperature, the mechanical weight of loaded baskets, and thermal cycling during heat-up and cool-down, causing them to shift position or allow baskets to sit at an incorrect angle within the vat. A warped basket support can cause one end of the basket to be closer to the heating elements than the other, resulting in uneven cooking and a risk of food scorching on the hotter side. Replacing the deformed support with the Pitco-compatible 14-1/4 by 12-1/2-inch unit restores level, correctly positioned basket support for uniform frying.
Replacement requires draining the vat, removing the old support, and dropping the new support into its designated position inside the vat. It is recommended to inspect the basket support during every deep cleaning for warping, corrosion, and correct seating position. Pairing basket support replacement with a vat inspection and a check of the heating tube or element clearances will ensure the fry vat geometry is correct for safe and consistent cooking performance.
