Can anyone tell me if #32 grinder plates from a hand crank grinder will work on a #32 electric? I'm thinking they should as the # denotes neck diameter which should be the same. I don't know about plate thickness though. I think the motor on my motorized cranker is about to conk out. It was really grunting today and started to smoke. It is quite underpowered (1/4 hp) but a gear reduction motor which works very well otherwise. I have gotten 15 plus years out of it so I can't complain. I have a pretty complete assortment of #32 plates and I'd hate to not be able to use them on a new electric if I go that route.

I bought a couple of plates from the sausage maker for my cabelas grinder that were supposed to be universal, but they were just a tiny bit too large. I know some are proprietary, in that, they are"keyed" differently. So it's not a guarantee that a 32 is a perfect match. Wished I had a better answer but if you can, take the plates with you when you go shopping.JT

They should be okay unless you get some off brand grinder...
Here is size and dimensions from the sausage maker.
Grinder Plate and Knife Information
Our knives and plates are made out of hardened steel. To determine what size grinder plate and knife you need, you must measure the overall diameter of the plate you currently have. The following plate and knife sizes are available from The Sausage Maker, Inc.
NOTE: When replacing the grinder plate, the knife should also be replaced.
Plates
• #8, #323: 2 7/16" overall diameter with a 3/8" center hole
• #10, #12: 2 3/4" overall diameter with a 3/8" center hole
• #22, #20: 3 1/4" overall diameter with a 7/16" center hole
• #32: 3 15/16" overall diameter with a 1/2" center hole
NOTE: All plates are 1/4" thick
Knives
• #8: 2 1/8" diameter tip to tip with a 7/16" square center hole
• #10, #12: 2 1/4" diameter tip to tip with a 7/16" square center hole
• #22: 2 3/4" diameter tip to tip with a 1/2" square center hole
• #32: 3 1/2" diameter tip to tip with a 5/8" square center hole

I have a #32 hand & electric and all my plate interchange.
Now both of these are kinda old school but the new plates fit just fine too.
look them over before ya buy or ask about measurements of the plates.
BEER-B-Q had a great chart.
hope this helps a little.

Looks like they need better storage techniques... clean 'em and spray 'em down with Pam and keep them wrapped in a Pam soaked rag in a ziplock.
Maybe some electrical work too?
And for God's sakes, keep fingers clear of that old beast! One of the old time "illegals" right there...In God I trust- All others pay cash...Check out the Mad Hunky and products at https://madhunkymeats.com or https://www.facebook.com/MadHunkyMeats
