Small but critical: this groove pin locks the planetary/drive assembly to the mixer shaft so the beater is driven firmly and wobble-free. Replacing a bent or sheared pin restores solid, reliable mixing.

What it does

• Secures the planetary to the drive shaft to transmit torque
• Helps fix beater not-turning, slipping, or intermittent drive
• Reduces wobble or knocking from a loose planetary
• Replaces pins that are bent, mushroomed, or missing

What’s included
One groove/retainer pin (sold individually).

Install notes

• Unplug the mixer; work on a padded surface
• Support the planetary; drive the old pin out with a small punch
• Align holes and tap the new pin in until seated flush—don’t overstrike
• Inspect the planetary and shaft holes for elongation; re-grease if opened

Replacement plate for stand mixers. Installs inside the mixer housing. Order a new plate if your original is cracked, broken, or missing.
