American Metalcraft Aluminum Pizza Peel 14" x 16" Blade with 12" Wood Handle — 14‑Gauge, Triple‑Riveted

The American Metalcraft 2814 is a sturdy 28-inch pizza peel with a 14" x 16" 14-gauge aluminum blade and a 12" wooden handle for safe, reliable pizza transfer and serving.

Designed for home cooks and small foodservice settings, this peel combines a large, lightweight aluminum blade with a comfortable wooden handle so you can slide, lift, and present pizzas, breads, and pastries without struggle. Built with triple-riveted ferrules and a commercial-grade thickness, it balances strength and maneuverability. The blade’s smooth surface lets crusts glide with a light dusting of flour or cornmeal, and its size accommodates large pies or full-sheet goods.

How does this peel make loading and unloading pizzas easier?

The broad 14" x 16" blade gives you ample surface to support dough and finished pies so they don't sag or fold during transfer. The aluminum is thin enough to slip under crusts after a quick shake, yet thick enough to hold weight without bending.

• Large rectangular blade supports full-size pizzas and pastries
• 14-gauge aluminum combines lightweight handling with durability
• Smooth surface reduces sticking when dusted with flour or cornmeal
• Optional perforated blade models improve airflow for crispier crusts

Will the handle keep my hands safe from oven heat?

The 12" wooden handle increases the distance between your hands and the oven, lowering heat exposure while offering a secure, ergonomic hold. Wooden grips remain comfortable even after repeated use and provide a traditional look for tabletop presentation.

• 12-inch wood handle keeps hands farther from heat sources
• Triple-riveted ferrule secures the handle for safe, long-term use
• Natural wood offers a non-slip, comfortable grip for confident handling

How versatile is this peel beyond making pizza?

Because of its size and flat profile, the peel works well for sliding breads, pies, pastries, and even as a cake lifter. Its lightweight aluminum construction makes it practical for both prep and serving duties at the table.

• Use as a lifter for breads, tarts, and sheet-baked goods
• Bring the peel to the table for a rustic serving presentation
• Lightweight design simplifies repetitive motions in busy kitchens

What care and durability can I expect from this product?

Constructed from commercial-grade 14-gauge aluminum and secured with triple rivets, the peel is built for frequent use. To protect the wooden handle and extend product life, hand wash only; avoid dishwashers and prolonged soaking.

• 14-gauge aluminum blade for reliable, long-lasting performance
• Triple-riveted construction prevents loosened joints over time
• Hand-wash recommended to maintain wood finish and metal integrity

Who is this for? The American Metalcraft 2814 peel is suited to home cooks who bake larger pizzas, small restaurants, pizzerias, and catering pros who need a practical, dependable tool for moving and serving pies and baked goods. If you want a balance of commercial durability, easy handling, and an attractive presentation piece that brings pizzas straight from oven to table, this peel is a solid choice.
