LEM Grinder Plates

This plate is specifically designed for #12 size grinders and measures 2.7 inches in diameter. Before purchasing, verify that your grinder is a #12 model, as these plates are not universal and will not fit #5, #8, or #22 units.

Yes, the reversible design allows you to use both sides of the plate, effectively doubling its lifespan. However, for the best results, we recommend pairing the plate with a fresh cutting knife whenever you flip it to ensure the edges remain sharp and efficient.

While the stainless steel construction is rust-resistant and food-grade, we strongly recommend hand washing these plates with warm, soapy water and drying them thoroughly immediately after use. Dishwashers can be harsh on precision grinding equipment and may cause premature dulling or surface damage.

The hole size determines the texture of your grind. Smaller holes are ideal for fine grinds like burger patties or spreads, while larger holes are better suited for coarse textures, such as those needed for sausage making or chili meat.

No, this listing is for a single grinder plate only. You will need to purchase the cutting knife separately if you need to replace your entire grinding set.
