Full-Size Aluminum Sheet Pan
The Chicago Metallic 44693 is a full-size aluminum sheet pan built for commercial kitchens and serious home bakers. Its 16-gauge construction resists warping during high-heat cooking. The closed-bead edge adds rigidity and prevents food traps. Anodized silver finish provides a durable, non-reactive surface.
Oven-Safe Solid Surface
This pan is rated oven safe with a solid, non-perforated base that supports even browning for sheet cakes, cookies and roasted vegetables. It measures 25 13/16 inches long by 17 7/8 inches wide with a 1 1/16 inch depth. The anodized aluminum conducts heat quickly but is not dishwasher safe and carries no NSF certification.
Replaces Thinner Warped Trays
Upgrading from lighter gauge pans eliminates the buckling that causes uneven baking and spilled batter. The rigid 16-gauge aluminum holds its shape through repeated thermal cycles. It is not suited for buyers who need perforated airflow, freezer-to-oven transitions or certified sanitation compliance.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 16 gauge or a different thickness for heavy roasting?
The 16 gauge aluminum provides rigid strength that resists warping at high oven temperatures, making it suitable for full-size sheet-pan meals and commercial batch baking.
What does the 18x26 size mean once the pan is in my oven?
The pan measures 25 13/16 inches long by 17 7/8 inches wide with a 1 1/16 inch rim, giving a full-size surface that fits standard commercial oven racks and holds large cuts or multiple trays of cookies.
Is the anodized aluminum surface compatible with acidic foods and metal utensils?
The anodized finish creates a hard, non-reactive layer that withstands tomato-based sauces and metal spatulas without pitting or transferring flavor, while the closed bead rim prevents food traps.
