The Bakers Pride® FC-516/451 combines the signature Il Forno Classico oven with the 451 deck oven, delivering both high-volume performance and authentic, exhibition-style presentation. Designed for the ultimate pizza kitchen, this model enhances ambiance with a steel-reinforced, arched opening and a visible open-flame burner, making pizza loading effortless while creating a warm, old-world dining atmosphere.
Built with a heavy-duty, .25" angle iron frame that is fully welded for stacking, the FC-516/451 offers unmatched durability. It is engineered to be built behind a decorative façade of brick, stone, or tile for a traditional look, or finished in stainless steel with the option of black-powder-coated panels and hardwood handles for a more refined presentation.
The top oven features a 10" Cordierite deck, while the bottom oven includes an 8" Cordierite deck—both designed for even heat retention and consistent baking results. Each chamber is equipped with independently controlled top and bottom dampers, giving chefs precise control over bake quality. With its combination of style, performance, and flexibility, the FC-516/451 is ideal for restaurants that want to maximize cooking capacity while delivering authentic exhibition-style pizza baking.
