Piping tip Stalgast 516050

Confectionery piping tips shape cream, chocolate, meringue and dough into precise decorations, borders and fillings. A 5 mm opening produces a medium-width stream that balances control with volume, allowing pastry chefs to pipe rosettes, shells, stars and lettering without clogging or excessive pressure. The tip attaches to a standard piping bag coupler, and the bag's pressure forces the mixture through the opening in a continuous line or dot pattern.

To use, fit the 5 mm tip onto the coupler inside the piping bag, fill the bag with the prepared mixture, twist the top to seal, and apply steady hand pressure. Adjusting hand pressure changes the flow rate, while the angle and speed of movement shape the final design.

The tip is made of stainless steel, which resists corrosion, withstands repeated washing and does not react with acidic or fatty mixtures. Its smooth, seamless construction prevents snagging and ensures even flow without streaks or breaks in the piped line.

A 5 mm tip suits medium-sized decorations on cakes, pastries and desserts, offering enough volume for visible detail without requiring excessive refills of the piping bag. It fits all standard Stalgast piping couplers and most professional piping bags used in commercial kitchens.

Clean the tip immediately after use by rinsing under warm water to remove residual mixture, then wash with mild detergent and a soft brush to reach the inside of the opening. Dry thoroughly before storage to prevent water spots or corrosion.
