HexClad 5.5 qt Hybrid Nonstick Deep Sauté Pan with Lid — Induction-Ready, Tri-Ply Even-Heat

The HexClad 5.5-quart Hybrid Nonstick Deep Sauté Pan with tempered glass lid is a versatile, induction-ready cookware piece that sears, simmers, and cleans easily thanks to its laser-etched hybrid nonstick surface.

This deep sauté pan blends stainless-steel durability with a TerraBond ceramic-infused nonstick matrix to deliver professional-style browning, simplified food release, and reliable cleanup. Built with tri-ply construction and an aluminum core for even heat distribution, the pan is safe on all stovetops — including induction — and withstands oven temperatures up to 900°F (tempered glass lid rated to 400°F). The included tempered glass lid helps you monitor cooking without losing heat or moisture.

How does the hybrid surface affect browning and food release?

HexClad’s laser-etched hexagonal pattern exposes stainless-steel peaks within a nonstick coating, combining the searing performance of metal with the release properties of a ceramic finish. That hybrid design encourages Maillard browning while minimizing sticking, so you can achieve a crisp exterior without excessive oil.

• Laser-etched hex pattern for improved sear and flip control
• TerraBond ceramic-infused coating for easy release and simple cleanup
• Metal-utensil safe surface lets you use spatulas or tongs without worry
