  • Tip for tool heads
    Publication number: 20020093210
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a tip for a tool head of a kitchen utensil. The tip provides a protective edge to prevent the kitchen utensil from scratching the non-stick coating on pots and pans. The tip is preferably made of a high temperature nylon material and is injection molded onto at least a portion of the edge of the tool head. The tip can be made in a variety of thicknesses, but is preferably substantially the same thickness as the tool head to provide a smooth transition from the tool head to the tip. The tip may cover a portion of the edge of the tool head or the whole exposed edge of the tool head. The tip may be placed on a variety of different tool heads known to those of ordinary skill in the art of kitchen utensils including spatulas and spoons.
