✕DO NOT FORCE THE FIT
The buy-once career pan. For watertight, rust-proof, decade-of-daily-use service, the stainless heli-arc 09012 is the answer; the 09075 is the light, mid-tier hybrid.
Wiping a 14" blade. The 13-3/4" rim is too short — use the 09014.
Abuse as a pry or a step. Plastic body; it holds and wipes mud, nothing structural.
A mixing tub. Working pan, not a batch-mixing vessel.
Finishing is half knife, half pan. Load light and even across the blade. Wipe every return on a steel edge
keep one edge as your clean loading side and the other as the wipe. Re-temper working mud that has stiffened or skinned rather than dragging stiff compound. Wash before it sets: the plastic body rinses clean and can sit wet without rusting, but the steel edges are steel — dry them, or at least don't store the pan with wet compound crusted on the metal, so the wiping edges stay clean and rust-free at the one place the tool has metal. Cured mud in any pan costs you depth and a clean edge; don't let it harden.

Asked at the counter
BUYER QUESTIONS ANSWERED BEFORE THE CART, NOT AFTER THE RETURN
Plastic pan or metal?
This is the middle answer: plastic's lightness and rust-freedom, with steel wiping edges so the wear surface lasts.
How is it different from the 09060?
The 09060's edges are molded plastic; this pan's edges are steel. Same light plastic body.
How is it different from a galvanized pan (09071)?
That one is all steel — heavier, tougher against dents, but zinc-coated and able to rust where the coating wears. This body is plastic and can't rust.
What size blade does it wipe?
Up to 12"; use the 09014 for a 14" blade.
What are its exact dimensions?
Top rim 13-3/4", depth 3-1/4" are firm; the bottom footprint differs between Hyde's catalog and website — verify against a unit.
