THE NEW STANDARD IN MANUAL CITRUS SMASHERS - $399 / FREE SHIPPING
Construction Materials
We take a standard citrus squeezer and modify it to be a citrus smasher!
The Ultimate Manual Citrus Smasher is constructed of FDA / NSF compliant materials in all areas that could come in contact with food. We use stainless steel and Acetal Copolymer.
WE DO NOT MAKE ANY CLAIMS THAT OUR SMASHERS ARE FDA / NSF APPROVED WHATSOEVER, ONLY THAT FDA / NSF COMPLIANT MATERIALS ARE UTILIZED IN ANY FOOD / BEVERAGE CONTACT AREAS.
One Piece Stainless Main Rod & Hardware
One (1) solid piece is better than three (3) linked pieces and less likely to cause problems. No more linkage issues and screws loosening.
We utilize a one-piece 304 stainless steel rod, with a TIG welded stainless steel center pivot rod, in the construction of the Ultimate Manual Citrus Smasher.
Many of the current manual smashers utilize the same chrome-plated upper rod that came with the original squeezer. Then, a milled block of aluminum is utilized for the cross connector with a set screw to attach it to the upper rod. This set screw could come loose and require tightening periodically. An aluminum lower rod , which is most likely not food grade unless they have documentation to prove otherwise, is utilized for the lower rod. Thus, the description of a three (3) piece rod system. The more pieces, the more likely problems can occur or parts could come loose.
Acetal Copolymer Smasher Head (Self-Draining) & HDPE Base Plate
The Ultimate Manual Citrus Smasher utilizes Acetal Copolymer for the smasher head (puck) with a stainless steel jam nut. Acetal Copolymer is also utilized for the base plate. Acetal Copolymer is an FDA / NSF compliant material. It does not fade, chip or flake when exposed to acidic fruits.
Most current smashers utilize a smasher head (puck) which is aluminum and not food grade unless documentation can be provided stating otherwise.
