The Kukmara 280/65 mm cast aluminium frying pan (article С282) is a solid, purpose-built piece of cookware manufactured by Kukmora Metallic Ware Plant (OJSC Kukmara), one of Russia's established producers of aluminium household and catering utensils. The pan is die-cast from aluminium with walls between 4.5 and 6 mm thick — substantial enough to eliminate hot spots and provide the thermal mass needed for even, sustained heat across the entire cooking surface.
At 280 mm in diameter, 65 mm deep, and 1,350 g, it balances generous capacity with everyday usability. The base diameter of 233 mm suits standard gas and electric hobs, while the overall length of 350 mm reflects the reach of the removable bakelite handle.
That detachable handle is a key practical feature: it allows the pan to be transferred directly to an oven, stacked with other pans for compact storage, and fitted with interchangeable handles from the same range. Kukmara notes that the cast aluminium body resists warping under repeated heating and cooling cycles and retains heat well, allowing food to continue simmering at a lower flame — much as it would in a traditional Russian stove.
The manufacturer positions this pan as simple, reliable cookware with a timeless design, well suited to frying, baking, and braising in both domestic kitchens and professional catering settings.
