The 0.5 HP (370W) motor spins the ironed steel drum at 1670 RPM, fast enough to grate through blocks of Parmesan, Romano, and aged cheddar without bogging down. For a small pizzeria grating a few blocks per shift, or a pasta station freshening up a service container of grated cheese, this unit handles the job without taking up much counter space. At just 10.25\" x 6.5\" x 12\", it fits on a prep table corner or a shelf without displacing other equipment. Safety features include a microswitch that stops the motor the moment the hopper is removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIroned Steel Drum with Stainless Steel Basin and Hopper\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grating drum is ironed steel, a harder and more wear-resistant material than stamped stainless steel drums that dull quickly with hard cheeses. The stainless steel basin catches grated cheese cleanly and directs it into your service container without scattering shreds across the counter. The stainless steel hopper feeds cheese into the drum at a consistent angle, so you get uniform shred size from start to finish rather than a mix of powder and chunks. Both the basin and hopper remove for cleaning between uses, which matters when you switch between cheese types or need to sanitize between service periods.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e370W Motor at 1670 RPM\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 1670 RPM, the drum moves fast enough to shred cheese efficiently while the 0.5 HP motor keeps energy consumption low. The unit plugs into a standard NEMA 5-15P outlet, so there is no special wiring required. At 18 lb, it is light enough to move between prep stations or store on a shelf when not in use. The compact 10.25\" x 6.5\" x 12\" footprint means it does not compete for counter space with larger prep equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Omcan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51267232366877,"sku":"21719","price":699.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0699\/4716\/2909\/files\/48684_e47b1034-4e04-4035-9103-304853a79078.jpg?v=1778415335","url":"https:\/\/thechefstore.com\/products\/omcan-gr-it-0373-m-light-duty-cheese-grater-370w-microswitch","provider":"TheChefStore.Com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
