#8 Mincer Holeplate 4.5mm

This No.8 Mincer Holeplate in 4.5mm stainless steel is ideal for producing a finer mince texture. The 4.5mm size is commonly used for sausages, burger blends, rissoles and general meat preparation where a tighter grain is preferred. When paired with a sharp No.8 knife, the plate helps maintain even cutting and prevents meat from smearing during use.

Made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, the plate is shaped to fit all standard No.8 mincers. The machining of the holes supports a more uniform flow of meat and helps reduce strain on the drive system. It’s suitable for beef, lamb, pork and game, and is a useful upgrade or replacement for anyone keeping their mincer in regular use.

Perfect as a direct replacement for worn plates or as an additional size option when preparing different textures.
