The Chicago Metallic 41145 is used to bake commercial quantities of 2 lb. hearth-style or artisan loaves simultaneously in professional environments.
Specs:

Overall Dimensions: 26 ¹/₁₆" L x 12 ³/₈" W x 2 ³/₄" D
Each Individual Pan Size:11 ⁹/₁₆" L x 5 ³/₄" W x 2 ³/₄" D
Capacity: Engineered for 2 lb. hearth bread or artisan loaves
Material: Heavy-duty 22-gauge aluminized steel for superior structural integrity and heat distribution

Primary Uses:

Baking Artisan Crusts: The perforated sidewalls allow hot air to reach the sides of the dough and let steam escape, creating a thick, crispy crust typical of European-style hearth breads
Shaping Soft Doughs: High-hydration doughs (like sourdough or rustic Italian breads) often spread out too flat when baked freely on a flat tray. This pan holds the dough's shape, forcing it to rise upward into a tall, structured loaf
Imparting Texture: The quilted bottom gives the base of the loaf a distinctive pattern and prevents the bottom crust from burning or sticking
High-Volume Production: The 4-strap frame holds four pans together as a single rigid unit. This allows bakery staff to quickly load and unload 4 loaves at a time into commercial deck or rotary ovens, maximizing efficiency and saving labor
