The locking wheel screws onto the meat mincer head to hold the ring nut and plate firmly in place during grinding.

Materials: aluminium (lighter) or stainless steel (resistant to corrosion and frequent washing) — the correct material depends on the original model of your machine.

How to choose the right spare part: check the exact size of your mincer (8, 12, 22) — the locking wheel is not interchangeable between different sizes.

Compatibility by brand: available for Fama and Fimar.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know if the locking wheel needs replacing?
Typical symptoms are difficulty locking the ring nut firmly, or worn threads that no longer hold the pressure.

Aluminium or stainless steel: which one do I choose?
Stainless steel holds up better to frequent washing; the correct choice still depends on the material originally fitted on your machine.
