Tramontina · Woks
Tramontina Signature 12.5 Inch Tri-Ply Clad Stainless Steel Wok
Lower concern, bare stainless steel wok with no nonstick coating means no PFAS-prone Teflon-family coating layer.
This wok uses tri-ply clad stainless steel construction without a nonstick coating, eliminating the primary route for PFAS in cookware. Tramontina makes no PFAS claims, but the material itself, bare steel, carries no known PFAS risk. No third-party verification exists for this model.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 87% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
