The GasMax KB-5 is a semi-automatic 5-burner natural gas vertical kebab machine built for medium-to-high-volume doner, gyro and shawarma service. A 56 kg meat capacity, 65 MJ/h of infrared ceramic burner output and stainless steel construction give a busy kebab shop, food truck or quick-service venue the throughput it needs — tender on the inside, crisp on the exterior. An LPG-spec variant (KB-5LPG) is available on this listing.
Key features
- 5 infrared ceramic burners — even, intense heat distribution along the full spit length.
- 56 kg meat capacity — sized for medium-to-large kebab operations, with a 965 mm spit.
- 65 MJ/h gas consumption — suits natural gas line capacity in most commercial venues.
- Adjustable spit position — set the distance between spit and burners to match the stack thickness.
- Stainless steel heat shields on both sides — keeps heat on the meat and protects neighbouring equipment.
- Built-in pilot ignition — quick start-up at the beginning of service.
- Heavy-duty rotation motor on a standard 10A plug — main heating is gas, so the electrical draw is minimal.
- 3/4" NPT rear gas connection with built-in regulator — a straightforward install for a licensed gas fitter.

Frequently asked questions
Q: Is an LPG version of the KB-5 available?
A: Yes — the LPG-spec KB-5LPG is available as a variant on this listing. The KB-5 itself is natural gas only; never convert an NG unit to LPG without certified GasMax conversion parts fitted by a licensed gas fitter, as it voids the warranty and may fail gas inspection.
Q: What is the meat capacity of the GasMax KB-5?
A: The KB-5 holds up to 56 kg of stacked meat on a 965 mm spit. Real-world daily output depends on how thinly you slice and how fast service moves.
Q: What are the installation requirements?
A: A 3/4" NPT natural gas connection (the gas regulator is built in) and a standard 10A power outlet for the rotation motor. Total gas draw is 65 MJ/h — confirm your venue's gas line capacity before ordering. Installation must be by a licensed gas fitter to comply with AS/NZS 5601.
Q: How do I clean the spit and burners?
A: The spit pulls out for after-service cleaning — wash in hot soapy water with no harsh abrasives on the stainless steel. The infrared ceramic burners burn off drippings under normal operation but should be inspected weekly, and the drip tray emptied and cleaned daily for hygiene compliance.
Q: What warranty does the GasMax KB-5 come with?
A: 2 years parts and labour, plus an additional 2 years parts-only cover when the product is registered within 14 days of invoice — 4 years of total cover. See our warranty information page for full terms.
