Ultra Red-Grip Scalloped Stainless Steel Utility Tong – 12 Inch

This model combines scalloped stainless steel gripping tips, red-coated handle sections, and a versatile 12-inch length. It offers the same distinctive grip design as the longer 16-inch version in a more compact everyday format.

The 12-inch length balances practical reach with easy handling for everyday kitchen and tabletop tasks. It provides more distance than short serving tongs while remaining more compact and maneuverable than the 16-inch version.

The shaped scalloped edges increase the contact points around food compared with straight, flat tips. This helps the tong hold items more securely during everyday lifting, turning, and placement.

Wash with warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft sponge, cleaning around the scalloped edges and where the red-coated sections meet the steel. Rinse and dry promptly. Avoid abrasive pads, bleach, chlorine-based cleaners, and sharp utensils on the coated areas.

The joined loop at the rear provides natural spring action, allowing the arms to open when pressure is released and close when squeezed. Avoid forcing the tong wider than its natural opening to help preserve its shape and tension.
