Stop sacrificing throughput for cut quality. This chopper plate delivers consistent particle size and sustained productivity in commercial meat processing. Engineered to fit #12 hubs, it handles heavy use without compromising dimensional accuracy. Operators secure repeatable results through precise hole sizing and hardened construction that resists wear during continuous duty cycles.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug the grinder and remove the plate. Soak the Alfa International 12.18 HBLS plate in warm water with a mild detergent for 10–15 minutes. Scrub both sides with a soft brush, paying attention to 3/16" holes to remove meat and fat. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a lint-free cloth. Apply a light food-grade oil to prevent rust. Reinstall when completely dry. Regular cleaning reduces bacteria, fire risk, energy use, breakdowns, and inspection failures.#@@#Additional Info#@#Alfa International 12.18 HBLS #12 hub chopper plate has 3/16" holes, chrome-vanadium alloy steel, ensures consistent particle size for meat processing, fits #12 hubs, replaces Hobart P-16424-1, weighs 0.05 pounds, made in Germany.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Stop sacrificing throughput for cut quality. This chopper plate delivers consistent particle size and sustained productivity in commercial meat processing. Engineered to fit #12 hubs, it handles heavy use without compromising dimensional accuracy. Operators secure repeatable results through precise hole sizing and hardened construction that resists wear during continuous duty cycles.
#@@# Hole Pattern#@#
The 3/16" hole pattern provides a uniform grind size for predictable texture and cooking performance. Users achieve consistent particle distribution across batches, simplifying portioning and downstream processing.
#@@# Hub Compatibility#@#
This plate fits #12 hub configurations, ensuring direct replacement for common commercial grinders. Technicians streamline swaps and minimize downtime by installing a component that mates to existing hubs without modification.
#@@# Material Strength#@#
Constructed from chrome/vanadium alloy steel, the plate resists deformation and edge wear during prolonged operation. Maintenance teams extend service intervals and reduce the frequency of replacement by relying on the alloy’s fatigue resistance.
#@@# Manufacturing Origin#@#
Made in Germany to controlled tolerances, the plate maintains concentricity and hole-axis alignment under rotational loads. Quality control during production reduces vibration and promotes quieter operation at high throughput.
#@@# Replacement Fit#@#
Designed to replace common aftermarket part numbers used in professional kitchens, the plate drops into standard assemblies for immediate use. Production managers avoid retrofit costs and maintain line speed with a compatible spare on hand.
#@@# Weight and Handling#@#
At approximately 0.05 pounds, the plate provides easy handling for rapid changeovers and inventory storage. Staff complete routine maintenance faster and manage small-part logistics without heavy lifting.
#@@#Delivery Details#@#
• Please ensure to handle the product with utmost care.
• Check if the product you have received has all the essential parts and accessories.
• Make sure to examine the product for damage before signing the delivery receipt.
• Contact customer service for delivery concerns.
• Delivery times may vary based on location.#@@#deliverynotes#@#NA#@@#Maintenance Guide#@#Inspect the Alfa International 12.18 HBLS chopper plate for wear and burrs, especially around the 3/16" holes; replace if edge rounding exceeds tolerance. Clean the plate after each run with warm water and mild detergent; avoid chlorine solutions that corrode chrome/vanadium alloy steel. Dry thoroughly and apply a light food-grade lubricant to prevent oxidation. Verify hub seating in #12 grinders and torque fasteners to manufacturer specifications to maintain alignment and throughput.
