Why Choose Us
Reliable PartnerEasy ordering process, quality products, and dedicated support for your business success.
At HONESTBEE, we understand that efficiency, durability, and reliability are paramount for commercial beekeepers and equipment distributors. We are proud to present our premium Stainless Steel 9-Frame Spacer, a fundamental tool engineered to streamline hive management, enhance honey production, and withstand the rigors of large-scale apiary operations.
Product Overview
This expertly crafted Frame Spacer is designed to maintain perfect, consistent spacing between frames within a standard 10-frame Langstroth hive body or super. By converting a 10-frame box to a 9-frame configuration, it encourages bees to draw out deeper honeycomb, resulting in easier uncapping and higher honey yields per frame. Its robust, all-metal construction makes it a superior, long-lasting alternative to plastic or wooden spacers.
Key Features and Professional Design
Our commitment to quality is evident in every detail of this essential beekeeping tool.
Professional-Grade Stainless Steel Construction
Crafted from high-quality stainless steel, this Frame Spacer offers a professional, clean appearance and unparalleled durability. Unlike wood that can rot or plastic that can become brittle, stainless steel is:
- Rust and Corrosion Resistant: Built to endure outdoor conditions and contact with honey and propolis.
- Easy to Clean and Sterilize: The non-porous surface can be easily scraped clean of wax and propolis and can be sterilized with heat, aiding in disease prevention and hive hygiene.
- Incredibly Strong: It will not bend, warp, or break under the weight of heavy, honey-filled frames or during routine hive inspections.
Precision Engineering for Optimal Spacing
The castellated (toothed) design is precisely cut to hold nine frames in a 10-frame box. This specific configuration is highly valued by honey producers because:
- It provides the ideal "bee space" that discourages the building of unwanted brace comb between frames.
- It allows bees to build out thicker comb, making the uncapping process faster and more efficient during honey extraction.
- It ensures frames are held securely in place, preventing shifting during transport of hives.
Design Specifications and Dimensions
The functional, L-shaped design allows the Frame Spacer to sit securely on the frame rest of the hive body.
- Length: 37 cm / 14.57 inches, designed to fit standard 10-frame Langstroth equipment.
- Width: 6 cm / 2.36 inches, providing a stable and supportive structure.
- Features: Includes a pre-drilled hole on one end for easy hanging, storage, or for securing it to the hive body if desired.
Advantages and Application Scenarios
The HONESTBEE Stainless Steel Frame Spacer is more than just a piece of metal; it's a long-term investment in operational efficiency.
- Application: Primarily used in honey supers to maximize honey storage per frame. It ensures frames are perfectly aligned, simplifying inspections and harvesting.
- Efficiency: Drastically reduces the time spent manually spacing frames. Simply place the spacer on the frame rest and slide the frames into their designated slots.
- Durability: This is a "buy it once" tool. Its robust build is designed for a lifetime of use in a commercial apiary, providing an excellent return on investment.
- Hive Health: By maintaining proper spacing, it improves airflow within the hive and reduces the chances of rolling or crushing bees during frame manipulation.
