Southbend Ultimate 60" Restaurant Range

6 Non-Clog Burners • 24" Left-Side Griddle • Standard + Convection Ovens

Engineered for the busiest commercial kitchens, the Southbend Ultimate 60" Series gas range (Southbend item #7706) delivers powerful, even heat across an ultra-versatile cooking platform—while its rugged stainless-steel construction stands up to years of daily service.

Why This Range Stands Out

  • 323,000 BTU total output for lightning-fast recovery and consistent performance.
  • (6) patented 33 K BTU non-clog cast-iron burners—lifetime clog-free design with standing pilots.
  • 24" smooth-plate griddle (½" polished steel) on the left side for breakfast, burgers & more.
  • Dual-oven flexibility: one 45 K BTU standard oven & one 32 K BTU convection oven, both with battery-spark ignition.
  • Includes 4 chrome-plated racks (2 per oven) with multiple position rails.
  • 22½" flue riser with convenient integrated shelf keeps plates, pans and seasonings within reach.
  • Stainless-steel front, sides, shelf and 6" adjustable legs for simple cleanup and a professional look.
  • Front-mounted manual gas shut-off simplifies service and daily operation.
  • Factory-installed gas regulator and 115 V cordset (for convection fan) speed up installation.
  • cCSAus, CSA Flame, CSA Star & NSF listed for peace-of-mind code compliance.

Cooktop Performance

Each open top burner supplies a true 33,000 BTU flame pattern that stays steady—even under heavy stock pots— while the heavy-duty cast-iron grates are removable for rapid cleaning. The left-mounted griddle features raised sides that corral grease splatter, and a deep removable trough makes end-of-shift maintenance quick.

Two Ovens, Endless Possibilities

  • Standard Oven (left) – 45 K BTU burner, 175 °F – 550 °F thermostat, porcelain-enameled interior (14"H × 26"W × 26.5"D).
  • Convection Oven (right) – 32 K BTU burner plus 1/2 hp fan motor for even browning at any rack height (14"H × 26"W × 24"D).
  • Spring-assisted doors stay put at any angle and close with a reassuring seal to lock in heat.

Construction & Warranty

  • Fully welded steel chassis resists twisting when heavy cookware is loaded on top.
  • Double-sided porcelain oven liners shrug off acidic spills and wipe clean with ease.
  • One-year limited parts & labor warranty backed by the nationwide Southbend service network.

For optimal performance, install under a properly sized vent hood and connect to a 7" W.C. natural gas supply (11" W.C. LP). Six-inch legs or casters are required on combustible floors. Consult local codes for additional clearance and ventilation requirements.

Important: Oversized cookware (12" diameter or larger) should be used on the rear burners only to prevent excess heat build-up in the front rail. Damage resulting from improper installation, maintenance or cleaning is not covered under warranty. This appliance is intended for commercial use only.
