The Problem – Meat grinder ring pops off because threads are worn out on head assembly

At some point, after many hours of using a meat grinder, the threads of the meat grinder head, also known as the feed tube, will weaken, distort, and bend enough that the threaded retaining ring meant to keep the internal parts of the plate, blade, and worm auger in place will not stay on. If this happens, the meat grinder is not unusable.

The Solution - There are only three options to fixing a meat grinder head with bad threads:

• Buy a new meat grinder. $$$$$
• Buy new head assembly and retaining ring. $$$$
• Rethread meat grinder head assembly. $
