Stainless Cone Funnel
A stainless cone funnel is a conical kitchen tool used for transferring dry or liquid ingredients through a narrow opening without spillage. Its construction from stainless steel provides durability, corrosion resistance, and ease of cleaning.
Material
Primarily constructed from various grades of stainless steel, typically 304 or 316 stainless steel. * 304 Stainless Steel: Offers good corrosion resistance and is suitable for general kitchen use. * 316 Stainless Steel: Provides superior corrosion resistance, particularly against chlorides, making it ideal for use with salt or acidic substances.
Purpose
The primary purpose of a stainless cone funnel is to facilitate the controlled pouring of substances into containers with small openings. This prevents messes and ensures accurate measurements.
Function
The funnel operates by utilizing gravity to guide the flow of ingredients. The conical shape concentrates the substance towards the narrow spout, allowing for a directed pour. The smooth interior surface minimizes residue buildup and promotes efficient flow.
Usage Scenarios
- Kitchen: Transferring liquids (oil, vinegar, sauces), powders (flour, sugar, spices), or granular materials (salt, pepper) into bottles, jars, or containers.
- Food Processing: Used in canning, preserving, and bottling operations.
- Laboratory: Employed for transferring chemicals or samples.
- Automotive: Used for adding fluids (oil, coolant) to vehicles.
- Industrial Applications: Transferring various materials in manufacturing processes.
Common Types
- Standard Funnel: The most common type, available in a range of sizes.
- Small Funnel: Designed for very small openings, often used for spices or essential oils.
- Large Funnel: Used for larger volumes of liquids or materials.
- Strainers Funnel: Incorporates a mesh screen for filtering solids while pouring.
- Collapsible Funnel: Made from flexible silicone or plastic, ideal for storage and portability.
- Funnel with Handle: Features a handle for easier gripping and pouring control.
- Jar Funnel: Specifically designed to fit the mouth of standard jars.
Stainless cone funnels are typically used for the conveyance or packing of goods, often in kitchen or industrial settings. They are fabricated from stainless steel, a material known for its durability and resistance to corrosion.
