HENDI Chip-Cutting Blade for Potato Cutter – 11 mm Cut

A chip-cutting blade slices potatoes into even batons by forcing each tuber through a grid of sharp, parallel edges. The 11 mm spacing between the blades determines the width of the finished chips, giving a consistent size that fries uniformly and presents a professional finish. The grid is mounted in a frame that locks into the cutter's feed hopper; as the pusher plate descends, the potatoes are pressed against the blades and emerge below as ready-to-fry batons.

To use the blade, slide it into the cutter's blade holder until it clicks into place. Load whole, peeled potatoes into the hopper, then lower the pusher steadily. The potatoes are forced through the grid in a single pass, producing chips that drop into a waiting container. The included pusher helps guide the last pieces through without risking fingers near the sharp edges.

The blade is constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel for the cutting grid, aluminium for the frame, and polystyrene for the pusher. These materials combine rigidity with light weight, so the blade remains stable during use and is easy to handle when removed for cleaning. The 110 mm square footprint matches the cutter's blade holder, ensuring a secure fit without movement during operation.

Controls are limited to the pusher, which the operator presses down manually to feed potatoes through the grid. No electrical or temperature settings are required; the blade relies solely on mechanical pressure to cut.

The 11 mm cut size is standard for thick-cut chips, suitable for traditional British fish and chips or rustic roasted potatoes. The 10 mm thickness of the blade assembly keeps the overall height low, allowing it to fit inside the cutter's hopper without obstructing the pusher's travel. The materials used mean the blade is light enough to handle with one hand, yet durable enough to withstand repeated use in a busy kitchen.

Cleaning must be done by hand, as the blade is not dishwasher-safe. Rinse the grid under warm water immediately after use to remove starch and potato residue, then dry thoroughly to prevent corrosion. The polystyrene pusher can be wiped with a damp cloth but should not be submerged. Regular cleaning maintains the sharpness of the blades and prevents build-up that could impede cutting performance.

This blade is a direct replacement for the chip-cutting grid in HENDI potato cutter model 630402. No other variants or cut sizes are supplied under this article number.
