Empura Filler Tables

What should you look for in filler tables?

Measure the gap width, adjacent equipment depth, working height, and clearances needed for cleaning and utilities. Compare tabletop material and gauge, backsplash height, undershelf construction, rated capacities, and adjustable feet. The table should sit level and should not block equipment ventilation, gas shutoffs, electrical access, or required service space.

Empura filler tables are listed in 15- and 18-inch widths with 24- and 30-inch depths. The listings identify 18-gauge Type 430 stainless steel tops, 1 1/2-inch backsplashes, galvanized legs and undershelves, adjustable bullet feet, and NSF certification. Listed capacities are 400 pounds on top and 280 pounds on the undershelf for 15-inch models, and 420 pounds on top and 300 pounds on the undershelf for 18-inch models. For wider prep surfaces, compare Empura commercial worktables.

Frequently asked questions about filler tables

What is the purpose of a commercial filler table?
It fills a narrow gap between ranges, fryers, or prep stations, converting unused floor space into organized staging and storage.

What sizes are available in the Empura filler table lineup?
The current collection includes 15- and 18-inch widths in 24- and 30-inch depths.

Can a filler table sit next to high-heat equipment?
Only when the table and its placement comply with the equipment instructions, required clearances, ventilation design, and local code. Do not block service access, air openings, gas controls, or electrical connections.

What is Type 430 stainless steel?
Type 430 is a ferritic, nickel-free stainless steel commonly used for economical commercial work surfaces. It is generally less corrosion resistant than Type 304, so cleaning practices and exposure to moisture or chemicals matter.

How much weight can an Empura filler table support?
Current product pages list 400 pounds on top and 280 pounds on the undershelf for 15-inch models, and 420 pounds on top and 300 pounds on the undershelf for 18-inch models. Distribute weight evenly and follow the exact model specification.
