Drive wheel for can opener Stalgast 300000

A can opener of this type uses a toothed drive wheel to grip the rim of a tin and rotate it against a cutting blade. The wheel's teeth mesh with the can's edge, providing the traction that turns the tin while the blade slices through the lid. Without a secure grip, the opener stalls or slips, interrupting service in a busy kitchen.

The operator positions the can against the wheel, closes the jaws, and starts the motor or crank. The wheel rotates, drawing the tin past the blade in a single smooth motion until the lid is fully severed. Once the cut is complete, the wheel reverses or stops, and the can is removed.

This spare wheel replaces the original drive component when its teeth become worn or damaged. It is manufactured to the same dimensions and tooth profile as the part it renews, ensuring the opener continues to grip and rotate cans without adjustment.
