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.

  • Genuine Lincat accessory — designed and built to fit the Opus fryer range
  • Half size format supports split-batch and allergen-separation working
  • Correct tank fit ensures consistent oil submersion during frying
  • Moulded handle for controlled, safe lifting from hot oil
  • Standard mesh construction suited to everyday commercial deep frying

This basket is intended for operators already running a Lincat Opus fryer. It is not compatible with other fryer makes or models. If you are unsure whether the BA83 is the correct fit for your specific Opus model, or if you need full size basket options, the team is happy to help clarify before you order.

Frequently asked questions

Is the BA83 compatible with all Lincat Opus fryers?

The BA83 is designed for use with the Lincat Opus fryer range, but not every Opus model is identical. If you are unsure whether the BA83 is the correct fit for your specific unit, it is worth checking with the team before ordering to avoid a wasted return.

Why run two half size baskets rather than one full size basket?

Running two half size baskets across a single tank allows operators to fry different products simultaneously — useful where cook times vary or where allergen separation is required. It also allows one basket to be loaded while the other is frying, which can improve throughput during a busy service.

How often should a commercial fryer basket be replaced?

There is no fixed interval — it depends on how hard the fryer is used. Signs that a basket needs replacing include handle degradation, mesh distortion, corrosion, or a basket that no longer sits level in the tank. Kitchens running their fryer through long daily shifts will typically cycle through baskets more quickly than lighter operations.
