Lincat BA83 Half Size Fryer Basket for Opus Fryers

The Lincat BA83 is a genuine half size mesh fryer basket made specifically for use with the Lincat Opus fryer range. It is a direct replacement or supplementary spare, not a universal accessory — it is sized and constructed to fit and function as intended within Opus fryer tanks.

In a busy service, basket condition is often underestimated as a factor in consistent results. A correctly fitted basket ensures even oil submersion, reliable cook times, and controlled lifting when handling product at full frying temperature. The half size format is well suited to kitchens running smaller batch quantities, or to operators splitting a single tank across two baskets — a practical approach when managing allergen separation or running products with different cook times simultaneously.

Fryer baskets do wear with regular use. Handles can degrade, mesh can distort or corrode over time, and a basket that no longer sits correctly in the tank introduces unnecessary handling risk during service. Keeping a spare in stock is straightforward good practice for any operation that runs its fryer hard through a shift.
