Upgrade Material WP240309-2 240309-2 Worm Gear Assembly Compatible With Whirlpool Kitchen-aid Maytag Mixer Replacement Gear 4162100 4169907 4162101 PS734273- Not traditional plastic gears

This replacement part for my kitchen stand mixer is the best purchase I have ever made. I have owned my mixer for about 10 years, and I had to repair it several times because the original plastic part kept failing. Finding this high-quality replacement part finally solved the issue. It fit perfectly, was simple to install, and allowed me to keep my mixer running like new. I am very satisfied and highly recommend it to anyone needing a reliable fix for their kitchen mixer.

Better than the plastic ones.

Great replacement for original plastic gear

When I got it I noticed that the upper shaft sleeve bearing was not a proper fit as the shaft could move back and forth a little bit. I went ahead and installed it, greased it up and it seemed like everything was fine until i started mixing some dough when it tore the gear up. I'm assuming because it wasn't fitting tight with the worm gear due to the slack in the bearing sleeve. I ordered another from a different company, so I'll wait and see how that goes.

Excellent

Seems to be working so far, a little noisy though. Sounds rough. warm to to the touch. But it's working! and was easy to install.

So far so good. The original one that came in my kitchen aid melted while we were grinding meat. Replacing this was much cheaper than buying a new one.

Lasted 4 months. Went to use it last night and it started smoking and made the loudest noise and won't do anything now. So, here I am, back to buy another one, albeit a DIFFERENT one.

Im Original ist dieses Schneckenrad eine Sollbruchstelle (nicht ohne Grund) und dadurch auch die größte Schwachstelle und das Verschleißteil Nummer 1. Aus diesem Grund haben wir in unserer Maschine, einen angepassten Motorschutzschalter montiert. Leider sind die Zahnflanken des Ersatzproduktes sichtbar nicht evolvent >gegossen<. Resultierend daraus funktioniert der Umbau mit dem alternativen Überlastschutz zwar, die Geräuschkulisse ist jedoch mit einem drehehnden Eimer Schrauben vergleichbar… Würde es dieses Produkt aus normgerechter passgenauer spanender Produktion (z.B. aus Messing) geben, hätte es viele Fans!
