GasMax Benchtop Single Bunner Griddle JUS-TRG40E

The Gasmax JUS-TRG40E is a compact single-burner benchtop gas griddle built for cafés, food trucks, and small kitchens that need a dedicated flat-top for breakfast service, burgers, or breakfast sandwiches. The stainless steel plate and body handle the heat of continuous service, and the flame-failure auto-ignition keeps the unit safe during busy service without constant operator attention.

Key features

• 21 MJ/h natural gas — enough output for steady high-heat cooking across the full plate
• Stainless steel construction — commercial-grade body and plate, wipes down quickly between services
• Auto-ignition with flame-failure cut-off — gas shuts off automatically if the flame drops, meeting AS5601 safety expectations
• Drip tray — front grease collection simplifies daily cleaning
• ½" gas inlet — standard commercial connection, works with most gas fit-outs
• Optional Gasmax stand (JUS400E) — pairs with this model for a freestanding setup when bench space is tight

Specifications

Venue suitability

Well-suited to cafés running cooked breakfasts, food trucks with limited power and water, burger shops, kebab vans, and back-of-house setups needing a second cooking surface alongside an existing cooktop. The 400 mm plate width targets single-station service — for dual-station or higher-throughput griddle work, step up to a two-burner Gasmax model.

Installation notes

Gas appliance — must be commissioned by an authorised F.E.D. technician before first use. Requires a natural gas connection with a ½" inlet. For LPG conversion or alternate gas supply, confirm availability with our team before ordering.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Does the JUS-TRG40E run on LPG or only natural gas? A: The standard JUS-TRG40E ships configured for natural gas (NG) at 21 MJ/h input. LPG conversion isn't offered on this model by default — if you need LPG, contact our team before ordering to confirm options.

Q: Does it need professional installation? A: Yes. As a gas appliance, it must be commissioned by an authorised F.E.D. technician or licensed gas fitter before first use. The ½" gas inlet is standard, so it connects to most commercial kitchen gas fit-outs.

Q: How much bench space does it need? A: The unit measures 400 mm wide × 650 mm deep × 475 mm high. Leave 50–100 mm clearance behind for the gas hose and at least 300 mm on each side for operator access and heat dispersion.

Q: What's the flame-failure safety feature? A: If the flame is extinguished (from a draft, spill, or gas drop), the burner automatically shuts off the gas supply. This meets Australian commercial safety standards and reduces operator risk during unattended preheat.

Q: Is a stand available? A: Yes — the Gasmax JUS400E stainless steel stand is designed to pair with this griddle for a freestanding setup. Sold separately.

Q: What's the warranty and after-sales support? A: 2 years parts and labour as standard, plus an additional 2 years parts-only cover when you register the product within 14 days of invoice. Parts are supported through our Granville NSW showroom.
