Know before you buy
No, the knock bar is wrapped in a protective silicone padding. This absorbs the impact of the portafilter, preventing metal-on-metal contact and protecting your equipment from dents or scratches.
While the stainless steel construction is durable, we recommend hand washing the unit with warm, soapy water to preserve the finish and the integrity of the silicone components. It is very easy to wipe down and maintain with minimal effort.
Yes, the unit features a no-slip silicone layer on the bottom. This provides excellent grip on most countertop surfaces, ensuring the box stays stable even during forceful use.
With dimensions of 170mm x 170mm x 165mm, it offers a generous capacity that is well-suited for heavy home use or smaller coffee operations. You won't need to empty it after every single shot.
The Rhino SS Knock Box is designed for heavy, repeated use, but the knock bar is a high-wear component. Please check with your retailer for specific replacement parts if you find the padding has degraded after years of service.
