Stop settling for attachments that wear out after a few uses. This stainless steel dough hook provides consistent kneading performance for frequent professional use and fits 4.5 and 5-quart tilt-head stand mixers, enabling efficient dough development across various recipes. Foodservice operators achieve uniform gluten development and reduced mixing time with a durable tool designed for repetitive, high-load workflows.
LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Unplug the mixer and remove the dough hook. Wash the stainless steel hook in warm, soapy water; scrub joints with a soft brush. Rinse and dry thoroughly to prevent corrosion. Inspect for bent sections and replace if deformed. Sanitize food-contact surfaces with a CSA-approved solution. Clean the mixer bowl and drive hub before reattaching. Perform this routine after heavy use to reduce contamination, lower maintenance costs, and extend equipment life.#@@#Additional Info#@#KitchenAid stainless steel dough hook fits 4.5- and 5-quart tilt-head mixers, promoting gluten development for bread and pastry doughs; it measures 7.75" height, 5.9" width, weighs 1.91 pounds, and meets CSA standards.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#

#@@# Material Durability#@#
Constructed from solid stainless steel, the hook resists corrosion and withstands repeated mechanical stress in commercial kitchens. Operators benefit from a long service life that lowers replacement frequency and reduces the total cost of ownership.
#@@# Mixing Efficiency#@#
The designed curvature optimizes dough folding and stretching to promote even hydration and gluten formation. Chefs experience shorter mix cycles and more consistent texture between batches, improving throughput and product quality.
#@@# Compatibility Fit#@#
This attachment fits 4.5 and 5-quart tilt-head stand mixers with a standard planetary hub interface. Purchasing staff minimize compatibility issues during equipment specification and replacement planning by matching this hook to widely used mixer models.
#@@# Dimensional Profile#@#
Measuring approximately 4 inches in depth, 5.9 inches in width, and 7.75 inches in height, the hook clears common bowl geometries while delivering adequate surface area for large dough masses. Kitchen managers can estimate storage footprint and handling ergonomics with precise dimensional data.
#@@# Weight and Handling#@#
Weighing about 1.91 pounds, the hook balances robust construction with manageable handling for installation and cleaning. Staff perform quick attachment swaps during service without excessive exertion, maintaining flow in high-volume environments.
#@@# Cleaning and Compliance#@#
The smooth stainless finish simplifies manual cleaning and supports routine sanitation protocols required in institutional kitchens.
