Will this handle iron skillets and cookware?
192155
I have multiple rolling pins, mixers, meat cleaver, and so many other kitchen tools that are extremely heavy, all hanging on mine. I wouldn't hesitate to hang my iron cookware on there if the urge hit me. And who knows? One of these days, it just might!

I wouldn't use it for that because it would have to be mounted into 2X4 or 2X6 even though the panels are strong.

I don't see why it wouldn't, if it's properly installed/anchored. I've got power and hand tools that outweigh the cast iron cookware hanging from mine.

I would guess they would, but you should use the slotted hangers when doing so. I have pretty heavy stuff hanging on my board using the standard 1/4" pegs. Now, if the cast iron skillet is much bigger than 10 or 12 inches...I might question that. Your regular pots, pans and utensils should work great.

I agree with Tex...If it is properly installed it shouldn't be any problem at all...

On another Wall Control pegboard product here on AZ, the question of weight maximums quotes Wall Control's website which says each panel will hold 100#. Even distribution and centering might be factors affecting the results.

I would ask the manufacturer that question, they are sturdy but iron skillets are heavy. Good luck.

Hello,This is a good product for grilling burgers, chicken, steak etc. directly on the grate. I have never used it with cast iron pans. I think depending on how heavy the pan is, it may be ok. If you put too much weight on the grill, it may start to loosen up the spike that you bang in the ground that holds it in place. If you put a rock or something to support it on the opposite side of the spike, it should be ok

If you anchor it appropriately, absolutely. Mine has been holding the following for over a year without the any trouble (note: all steel is tri-ply, they are heavy pans): 8" and 12" cast iron skillets; 12" cast iron grill pan; 8" aluminum, fry pan; 8" & 10" steel fry pans; 3 qt steel saute; 1.5 qt steel saucepan; 3 , 6 & 16 qt steel stock pots, a griddle, steel steamer basket, aluminum steamer basket, a set of strainers/spatter screens, a 4lb bamboo cutting block, extra inserts from my 10 cup rice maker, an iron cookbook holder and a small roaster pan. My conservative guess would be that there's about 50lbs of stuff on it. It's hanging off heavy steel eye bolts that were piloted/drilled directly into a ceiling stud.

Absolutely! You get all of the advantages of the even heating of a heavy pot without all of the maintenance of normal cast iron. We have several cast iron skillets and pots, but I cringe when I have to clean them, scrubbing them with salt, drying them on the stove top and then oiling them. This enamel-coated pot, with no cast iron exposed, I just wash in the sink with the rest of my hand wash only dishes.

Yes. I'm using a Lodge 10" skillet. The screen's diameter extends well over the edges.

I use it to hang pans and skillets and it works for me. It would take a lot to bend them. I don't thank banging with a hammer could bend them.

Yes.. It is sturdy enough to provide protection between skillets and pans. I use it under the sink and in cupboards to prevent scratching shelves as we'll.

Yes myah it will. my only issue with the iron is that the paint on the plate starts to peel off after a while and it burns your hair. i had the first one exchanged and the second one did the same.

Our rack is holding a 14" cast iron skillet, plus assorted scanpans, fry pans and the occasional magnilite sauce pan. Doesn't seem to be stressed at all!

It depends somewhat on how you mount it. The unit itself is very sturdy and could hold what any set of pot and pans would weigh. If it is mounted securely it should even hold iron cookware.

Yes, I have used a large pot to make stew on this along with a 6" skillet and a 12" skillet. I had no problems with it holding my pots and pans.

I have 5 frying pans plus 5 pots of varying sizes hanging from it in addition to 2 stoneware baking pans on top. No cast iron, thought. As long as it is properly anchored it should hold up fine to cast iron.

I think so. I have a set of Stainless Steel and one cast iron on mine. And a few cookbooks in the lid rack. It's holding steady. Well made and solid, so long as it's mounted well, it should have no issue with cast iron.

I think it would work great, magnets stick to cast iron so instead of just the magnet going thru it, it should work fine.

Yes it will, but keep in mind that this is not for continuous use. Do not leave the iron switched on for long time.

Yes, it is sturdy enough to hold cast iron pans. I has truly lived up to my standards.Sandra

I clean all my stainless steel pots and pans with it and it works beautifully. If the stove is stainless steel it should work for that too. But I don't have a stainless steel stove so I can't say for sure.
