PRO-CUT KG-12-FS #12 Commercial Electric Meat Grinder – 400+ lb/hr

The PRO-CUT KG-12-FS #12 Electric Meat Grinder combines reliable grinding performance, durable construction, and a compact countertop design for light- to medium-volume foodservice operations. Capable of processing more than 400 pounds of meat per hour on the first grind, this commercial meat grinder is ideal for restaurants, butcher shops, grocery meat departments, delis, game processors, commissaries, and other businesses that need consistent results without sacrificing valuable workspace.

A powerful 3/4 HP motor delivers up to 21 lb-ft of torque, while the precision-engineered steel gear transmission provides dependable power for grinding beef, pork, poultry, wild game, and meat used for sausage, hamburger, meatballs, and other prepared foods. The grinder produces up to 7.49 pounds per minute during the first grind with a 3/8-inch plate and up to 3.97 pounds per minute during the second grind with a 1/8-inch plate.

The KG-12-FS features a durable food-grade stainless steel cabinet and oversized stainless steel feed tray, along with a heavy-duty cast-iron headstock. Its compact footprint makes it well suited for operations with limited counter or storage space, while non-slip rubber feet help keep the machine stable during use. Standard 115-volt, single-phase power and a NEMA 5-15P plug allow the grinder to operate from a common commercial electrical outlet without specialized three-phase power.
