Omcan 20 mm Plastic Spout for #12 Grinder

At 20 mm output diameter, this tube produces dinner-sized sausages, kielbasa, and bratwurst style links rather than the thin breakfast format of the 10 mm. The wider bore moves more meat per stroke, which speeds up the fill rate.

Natural hog casings and 22 to 26 mm collagen casings fit naturally over the tube without tearing during fill. Pre-soak natural casings in lukewarm water for 30 minutes to make them pliable.

Only the #12 grinder head format. Confirm your grinder by checking the casting number on the head, or comparing with the broader meat grinders catalogue.

Disassemble immediately after use, scrub with hot soapy water and a long-handled brush, then air-dry fully before storage. Meat residue left in the tube grows bacteria and discolours the plastic.

Plastic is gentler on natural casings, lighter to handle through long shifts, and less prone to causing flange damage from over-tightening. Stainless still rules where extreme durability matters more than casing kindness.

Never expose the tube to oven temperatures, boiling water, or open flame, all of which deform the plastic. The tube also cannot be re-used if cracked, since cracks harbour bacteria.

Pair with the #12 stuffing plate, a few casing diameters, and either a meat grinder or a manual stuffer from the butcher equipment and supplies range.
