Bread pan for home bakers
The Chicago Metallic 40421 is a single, open-top loaf pan made from 26 gauge aluminised steel. Its plain silver finish suits everyday bread recipes and fits standard oven racks. Home bakers who want a durable, uncomplicated pan for yeast or quick breads will find it straightforward to use.
Performance over repeated bakes
The aluminised steel construction distributes heat evenly across the 9 inch length and 5 inch width, helping crusts brown consistently from the first batch to the last. Because the material resists warping under normal oven temperatures, the pan keeps its shape through daily use without developing hot spots that burn the bottom before the centre sets.
Thermals and care
The metal handles sustained oven heat without deforming, and the open-top style lets steam escape naturally for a crisper crust. It is not dishwasher safe and not rated for freezer storage, so hand washing and room-temperature storage are required. No non-stick coating is present, so greasing or lining the pan before each bake prevents sticking.
