Workbenches — Stainless Steel Workbench — Standard WD-48S2 — 304 stainless steel, W1221xD770xH1405 mm

The WD-48S2 is a Tanko stainless steel workbench — standard, measuring W1221xD770xH1405 mm, topped in 304 stainless steel. Built in Taiwan by Tanko Enterprise and supplied in Malaysia by Primaxs Marketing.

The stainless top is the reason this model exists: it takes daily washdown, food acids and disinfectant without staining or harbouring anything in a seam, which is what food, pharma and laboratory work actually require of a bench. The 600kg rating covers a vise, an arbor press and the weight of a full day's work sitting on it at once. It ships as a bare bench, so the uprights, pegboard and lighting can be added later as the job changes rather than paid for now and worked around.

It sits 3 of 8 in its family, between the WD-48S at RM3,072.75 and the WD-48S7+WDP-14S at RM5,061.00. At 1221mm it is the widest of the two widths offered.
