Brass Gear Pinion for Thermomix TM5 TM6 Motor Lock | 10-Tooth | Made in Germany | Press-Fit | 2 Options

Fix the Lock. Upgrade to Brass. Replace It Once.
The original 9-tooth plastic pinion in your Thermomix TM5 or TM6 locking mechanism is a known failure point — it strips, cracks, or wears down until the motor lock stops engaging. This precision-machined brass replacement solves that permanently. Made in Germany from high-quality brass, engineered with 10 teeth instead of 9 for smoother force distribution and reduced wear. Press-fit installation, no adhesive needed. Choose the gear-only option or the kit with lubricant included. Backed by a 12-month warranty.

Why Brass? Why 10 Teeth?

• Brass vs. Plastic — A One-Time Upgrade: The factory plastic pinion is the weak link in an otherwise robust motor. Heat cycles, repeated locking, and time cause the plastic to fatigue, crack, and eventually strip. Brass doesn't. It handles the same loads without degrading, delivering consistent, reliable locking year after year.

• 10 Teeth vs. 9 — Smarter Load Distribution: Adding one extra tooth spreads the load across a larger contact area. This means less stress on each individual tooth, reduced wear on the driven gear, and quieter, smoother operation — despite the harder material.

Key Features & Your Benefits:

• Made in Germany — Precision Engineering: Precision-machined from high-quality brass, backed by years of development and practical experience. The internal diameter is engineered to an exact interference fit for clean, permanent mounting.

• Precision Press-Fit — No Adhesive Needed: Once pressed onto the motor shaft, the gear seats securely and permanently without glue, grub screws, or retaining compounds. Clean mechanical attachment that won't work loose.

• Quiet, Smooth Operation: The improved tooth geometry ensures the brass pinion meshes cleanly with the driven gear. You get the strength of metal without the noise — quieter than you'd expect, smoother than the original.

• Efficient Power Transfer: The 10-tooth design optimises the drive ratio, delivering more stable and efficient engagement with the locking mechanism. Less slippage, less resistance, better performance.

• Longer Lifespan — Higher Wear Resistance: Compared to the original 9-tooth plastic pinion, the brass version offers significantly higher wear resistance and load capacity, dramatically extending service life.

• Two Options — Choose Your Setup:

  • Option 1: 1 × 10-Tooth Brass Gear + 1 × Lubricant

  • Option 2: 1 × 10-Tooth Brass Gear
