FAQs about Titanium Frying Pans
NanoBond is the most durable cookware on the market thanks to advanced technology and innovation that protects it from the usual wear and tear issues seen in cookware. It’s a unique, patented titanium based nano-technology that produces thousands of super dense and durable metallic layers which bond to the stainless steel, thus sealing it in and protecting it. It is a process never before seen in professional cookware. The molecular titanium surface is 400% harder than stainless steel and extremely resilient against things like scratching, staining, pitting and high heat oxidation. The surface is 100% toxin free, ultra-smooth and non-porous so it releases food and residue with ease compared to traditional stainless steel.
This technology enables you to use things that usually degrade/ruin other cookware like high heat (safe up to 1,050°F), metal utensils, dishwasher, nonstick cooking spray, even a grill. NanoBond is chemical free, extremely durable, and resistant to staining and scratching, which results in lasting beauty, along with superior performance.
ProBond and NanoBond have a similar tri-ply construction with 18/10 stainless steel as the interior/cooking surface and our exclusive aluminum ProCoreTM. Where NanoBond differs is that the 18/10 stainless steel is further protected by thousands of molecular titanium nano-layers that create an incredibly durable and impermeable surface that is 400% harder than stainless steel and ultra-smooth.
Our best stainless skillets are prized for their durability and versatility. They can withstand high temperatures and are excellent for searing, browning, and deglazing. These large skillets are also non-reactive, meaning they won’t impart metallic flavors to acidic foods like tomatoes or wine.
Yes, one of the benefits of our induction skillets is their compatibility with metal utensils. The titanium fry pans can handle the use of metal spatulas, spoons, and whisks without the risk of scratching or damaging the surface.
Titanium fry pans are particularly good for cooking proteins like meats and fish, which benefit from the high heat capability of the skillet for browning and searing. They are also excellent for sautéing vegetables, creating pan sauces, and deglazing, as they can handle the high temperatures needed for these cooking methods without warping. Foods that require a quick response to changes in temperature are also well-suited to stainless skillet due to its excellent heat conductivity.
