Southbend SBF18 Portable Fryer Oil Filter System

Protect your oil, improve food quality and cut operating costs with Southbend’s mobile SBF18 filter unit. Built for economy fryers up to 75 lb, this low-profile cart slides easily under the drain, filters hot oil at up to 5.6 gallons per minute, and rolls away for compact storage when the job is done.
