Food Tek 02TR550 Tre Spade #8 Electric Mincer

The Tre Spade 0.4HP No.8 Electric Meat Mincer is an Italian-built unit suited to hobby butchers, small farms and anyone preparing meat in moderate quantities. The cast metal housing and geared drive system contribute to its strength, while the 0.4HP motor maintains a steady pace for beef, lamb and pork.

The No.8 head size works well for producing mince for burgers, rissoles, sausages and a range of general meat preparation tasks. The stainless steel knife and plate cut neatly without smearing, helping maintain a consistent texture during mincing. The metal screw and hopper guide meat through with ease, making the unit suitable for regular use throughout the year.

Tre Spade’s long engineering history is reflected in the balanced design — durable materials, simple operation and components that can be removed quickly for washing. Its footprint fits comfortably on a bench or in a shed, ideal for users who want Italian-made quality without moving to a larger machine.
