KitchenAid replacement nylon (plastic) Worm Gear / shear gear for KitchenAid 4.5qt and 5qt stand mixers

Perfect fit and was exactly what I needed to fix my kitchen aid when the bowl came off mid mix. The first pin is difficult to get out of the hole so Needed some help but otherwise did the job myself following a YouTube video.

Wife's KitchenAid mixer stopped rotating properly, mainly because she uses it to make bread dough, which is quite a violent operation. A replacement mixer was beyond my budget, so I was happy to find this gear is designed to fail under stress and costs considerably less than a new mixer. :-) A few tools (including a trusty hammer!) and a YouTube video are required. It is a very messy job as the gear is buried in thick grease, but it all went back together and despite the pin that locks the gear onto its shaft sliding in with nothing like the force it took to remove it, it is now restored to its former glory. My mixer did require some wires to be disconnected from the motor housing, which didn't quite match the video, but it was fairly easy to do. Nice to work with something that was engineered!

The perfect replacement for a worn/stripped worm drive for our kitchenAid mixer. Would purchase again if needed (the first one lasted 10 years)

Fitted this to my kitchen aid mixer and works perfectly.

I had foolishly not clicked my metal bowl properly into my Kitchenaid stand mixer so when it slipped out and jammed with the motor still running I wasn’t surprised to find it growling in pain. I cleaned it up with the hope that a few minutes downtime would resolve it but no, it was sounding like it was on its last legs. My husband suggested repairs but sending it off for fixing was looking like £200. We researched the internet and YouTube where this nylon cog seemed to be our best bet. I ordered with not much hope of it working but can happily report SUCCESS. There are lots of videos on YouTube to take you through the step by step repair and if you have some tools and can follow instructions it takes about an hour to dismantle and reassemble your mixer. It is a messy job because once you open the mixer it’s full of gloopy grease which you will get all over your work surface and tools but this needs to be saved and returned inside the machine before closing back up. The external machine then needs a wipe over and we found meths worked best. This tiny part has saved my Kitchenaid and I’m ordering another to have as back up in case this ever happens again.

It fixed the problem, and it's back to normal, now, and I replaced it on the kitchen table

Perfect and i fixed it myself. Never done anything like that with machinary before so i was extremely happy that my kitchen aid was up and running again :)

This is an original part. Do not buy the cheaper alternatives, they will not fit correctly and are of poor quality. I always have one of these spare as I mix heavy dough with my kitchen aid and these will get damaged over time.

Il prodotto è perfettamente sostituibile, occorre fare attenzione a ripulire bene la scatola degli ingranaggi dal vecchio grasso in quanto i pezzetti dei denti dell'ingranaggio sono inglobati. Quindi è obbligatorio sostituire anche il grasso in contemporaneamente al cambio dell'ingranaggio.

La qualité semble ok. N'a pas cassé depuis le montage et après avoir pétri de la pâte à pain (environ 1kg, 2 fois) et après avoir fait des pâtes fraîches.

This is a good high quality replacement worm gear. Mixer works perfectly. I previously installed a cheap worm gear however the outer plastic teeth turns/slips on the inner metal section. I recommend purchasing this or equivalent OEM part.

ok ok ok

Perfect! Exactly what I needed to fix my stand mixer! :)
