AUS-ION™ Lightning Workhorse Frypan Set — 20cm, 24cm, 28cm
The AUS-ION™ Lightning Workhorse Frypan Set is the ultimate trio for versatile, everyday cooking. Whether you're cooking for one, a couple, or a whole family, this set has you covered. From quick breakfasts to dinner parties, these three pans are your go-to workhorses, built to last generations.
Like all AUS-ION™ pans, each frypan is 100% Australian-made from clean iron and naturally seasoned for non-stick performance without synthetic coatings or toxic chemicals. The Lightning range stands out with a pared-back design: slightly thinner iron for lighter handling, simplified features, and a focus on value — all without compromising durability or performance.
This Set Includes:
1 x AUS-ION™ Lightning 20cm Frypan
1 x AUS-ION™ Lightning 24cm Frypan
1 x AUS-ION™ Lightning 28cm Frypan
What Makes Lightning Different?
-
2.5mm Australian iron — slightly thinner than our flagship AUS-ION™ (3mm) for faster heat-up and easier handling.
-
Streamlined design — simplified handle vents, no base stamp, and CNC rounding only where it’s needed.
-
Uncompromised durability — still wrought from a single solid sheet, still built to last centuries.
Why You’ll Love It
-
Perfectly sized trio: 20cm for quick meals, 24cm for everyday cooking, and 28cm for larger servings.
-
Naturally non-stick with seasoning — no PFAS, no PTFE, no nasties.
-
Safe for all heat sources: induction, oven, BBQ, or campfire.
-
Lighter weight, but the same heirloom quality you expect from Solidteknics.
Care & Cleaning
After each use, rinse with warm water, dry thoroughly, and apply a light coat of oil. No soap needed. Store in a dry place. For more tips, see our care instructions.
Please Note — A Patchy Pan is Normal!
Your AUS-ION™ pan comes naturally seasoned with pure rice bran oil—no synthetic coatings here! Surface variations are completely normal, even when your pan first arrives. Don’t worry—this won’t affect performance. With every cook, your pan’s seasoning will evolve, creating a surface that’s uniquely yours.
