60-Quart Aluminum Sauce Pot
This 60-quart aluminum sauce pot is built for high-volume cooking in commercial kitchens. Its straight-sided body and riveted aluminum handles support heavy batches of stock, sauce or soup. The 4.2 mm gauge material distributes heat evenly across the base and walls. NSF certification confirms it meets food-service sanitation standards.
Thermals and handling in daily service
The 4.2 mm aluminum gauge spreads heat quickly, reducing hot spots during routine simmering. Riveted aluminum handles stay cooler than the vessel body, allowing safer transport on the line. Without a cover, steam vents freely, so the pot does not trap excess pressure or moisture. The bare aluminum finish is not dishwasher safe and requires hand washing after each shift.
Behaviour during extended high-heat runs
During prolonged boils or reductions, the thick gauge resists warping and maintains consistent thermal mass. The open-top design lets evaporation proceed without pressure build-up, so liquids reduce predictably over long periods. Riveted handles remain secure even when the pot is filled to capacity and moved repeatedly. Aluminum construction means the surface will darken with extended high-heat exposure.

Questions about this item
How do I install the riveted aluminum handles on this 20 1/2 in sauce pot?
The handles are factory-riveted to the 4.2 mm aluminum body, so no installation is required; the step users sometimes attempt is drilling new holes, which weakens the pot.
What maintenance will the 60 qt aluminum sauce pot need over time?
Hand-wash only — the pot is not dishwasher-safe and has no non-stick coating, so avoid abrasive pads that can thin the 4.2 mm walls.
What limit appears first when the 20 1/2 in pot is used continuously on high heat?
The 4.2 mm aluminum conducts heat rapidly, so the riveted handles become too hot to touch before the 60 qt capacity reaches a boil.
