Mahlkonig EK43 Shear Plate - Aluminum

Mahlkönig EK43 Aluminum Shear Plate

A sacrificial shear plate engineered to break before your motor does if the burrs ever seize, cheap insurance against a much more expensive repair.

SPECIFICATIONS

• Material: aluminum
• Fits the black aluminum prebreaker only

COMPATIBILITY

• Fits: Mahlkönig EK43S, and any 2nd-generation EK43 with round, stainless on/off buttons and the black aluminum prebreaker
• Replaces: Mahlkönig #703800

INSTALLATION

Requires opening the grinder's prebreaker housing, a straightforward job for an experienced technician.

PRO TIPS

• If your EK43 suddenly stalls or trips its motor overload with a loud clunk, check this shear plate before assuming a motor failure, it's designed to fail first, and a broken plate is a much cheaper fix than a burned-out motor.
• Confirm your prebreaker is the black aluminum version before ordering, earlier and later EK43 generations use different prebreaker materials and this plate won't fit them.
