#12 Mincer Holeplate 16mm

The No.12 Mincer Holeplate with 16mm holes is made for producing an extra-coarse grind where large meat pieces and a more open texture are preferred. This style of plate is well suited to chunky sausage mixes, rustic game processing and blends where structure matters more than fine breakdown.

Crafted from stainless steel, the plate fits firmly against a No.12 knife and maintains stable cutting performance across longer sessions. The 16mm hole size allows meat to pass through freely, reducing resistance while keeping the texture bold and defined. For many butchers and home processors, this plate is the go-to choice for traditional coarse recipes or when preparing meat for secondary grinding.
