FIMAR Disc NPD 16x16x8 for Professional Catering Equipment

A replacement disc for professional catering equipment, the FIMAR NPD 16x16x8 serves as a precision component in machinery where consistent sizing and durability are critical. Discs of this type are typically used as spacers, wear pads, or alignment guides within larger appliances. Their role is to maintain exact distances between moving parts, absorb vibration, or provide a stable surface for other components to rest against. The material—though not specified—is chosen for its resistance to heat, moisture, and mechanical stress, ensuring reliable performance under the repeated cycles of a busy kitchen environment.

To install, the operator locates the designated slot or mounting point within the appliance, aligns the disc, and secures it according to the manufacturer's instructions. The 16 mm square profile and 8 mm thickness dictate the space it occupies, so it fits only where those dimensions are required. Once in place, the disc remains static, supporting the operation of the equipment without direct interaction from the user.

The size of 16x16x8 mm defines its compatibility with specific models of catering machinery. A disc of this shape and measurement will not fit appliances designed for larger or smaller components, so it is essential to confirm the part number against the equipment's manual. Its compact footprint allows it to be stored easily alongside other spares, while its weight—though minimal—ensures it stays in position once installed.

Cleaning is straightforward: the disc can be wiped with a damp cloth to remove dust or grease, but abrasive cleaners or solvents should be avoided unless the material is confirmed to tolerate them. Regular inspection for wear or deformation ensures it continues to perform its role without compromising the appliance's operation.

This disc is a genuine FIMAR spare part, designed for use with compatible professional catering equipment where the NPD 16x16x8 specification is required.
