Details
This #52 kidney plate is a replacement plate for commercial meat grinders and mixer-grinders that take #52 size plates and knives, such as Hobart 4152, 4352, 4552, 4752 and 4852 and Biro AFMG-52 grinders. Instead of many small holes it has three large kidney-shaped openings, so it is used for a coarse first pass and for reprocessing ground meat, for example when running product back through the grinder to fill sausage stuffing tubes. It is made in Germany by L&W from carbon tool steel.
Like any grinder plate, the face wears where the knife runs against it. Once the face is scored or dished, the knife no longer sits flat, so meat tears and smears instead of being cut cleanly, product warms up, output slows and the motor works harder. A worn plate also dulls a new knife quickly, so plates and knives should be replaced or resurfaced together as a matched pair.
To install, disconnect power, remove the ring, take out the old plate and check the knife. With the knife on the feed screw and its cutting edges facing out, seat the plate over the stud so the notch lines up with the key in the head, then thread the ring on until snug, not overly tight. After use, remove the plate, wash it by hand in warm soapy water, clear the holes, rinse, dry it right away and coat it lightly with food-grade oil, since carbon steel will rust if left wet. This plate fits Hobart 4152, 4352, 4552, 4752 and 4852 and Biro AFMG-52 grinders. Confirm your model before ordering.
