MKN Work Table 1303704 – HotLine

Four hundred by seven hundred millimetres of working surface on a 700 mm high body makes the MKN 1303704 one of the most compact HotLine work tables in the range. At a net weight of 33 kg it is substantial enough to stay planted on deck, yet still manoeuvrable during installation or refits.

On a ship, that 400 x 700 mm footprint matters because every section of galley and servery has to fight for linear space. This table adds a defined stainless surface for plating or light mise en place without taking the area of a full base cabinet or equipment module. At 700 mm height it can align in a coherent line with other HotLine components specified at the same working level, simplifying both ergonomics and the stainless interface to adjacent units.

The working surface matches the full 400 x 700 mm plan dimension, so there are no overhangs or cut-outs to complicate cleaning or installation against neighbouring equipment. Gross weight is quoted at 39 kg, which is the figure the yard and logistics teams will use for lifting plans and for checking how many units can be handled as one consignment to the vessel. In a refit scenario where access routes are tight, that number is often as important as the length and width.

Accepting GN 1/1 containers allows the 1303704 to function as a staging or support point for standard pans without adapters or improvised stands. In a service line this can be used to hold chilled or hot GN pans arriving from production, while in a preparation area it gives a defined place to park ingredient containers at working height. Because the table is part of the HotLine series, it can sit in the same visual and dimensional language as adjacent cooking appliances.

Build and control

• Stainless steel 1.4301 (AISI 304) throughout
• Self-supporting closed construction
• Accepts GN 1/1 containers

The self-supporting closed construction is relevant where the table is not being fixed to a wall or bridged between other units, because it brings its own stability without needing a subframe. It also gives the designer freedom to position it anywhere along the galley line, including as a freestanding island between opposing runs, while keeping the underside enclosed. For galleys where all under-counter volume is already committed to refrigeration or storage, a simple work table like this can provide the extra surface needed to decant, portion or assemble without revisiting the whole layout.

This is the right choice when the requirement is a small, dedicated work surface that ties into a GN 1/1 workflow and matches HotLine geometry. It is the wrong choice where undercounter shelving or refrigerated storage is required, because the unit offers surface only and no integrated volume. Ordered under MKN article number 1303704.
