Wire tines have splayed outward, lost their shape, or are no longer evenly spaced, causing poor air incorporation and uneven mixing.
Mixer runs but whipped cream, egg whites, or meringue fail to reach stiff peaks — typically caused by a worn or misshapen whip that can no longer fold air efficiently.
A warped or damaged wire whip contacts the bowl wall or bottom during operation, producing scraping or clunking sounds and potentially chipping the bowl enamel.
Surface rust, pitting, or coating flakes appear on the wire tines, contaminating food — a clear signal the whip must be replaced immediately.





💡 Pro Tip: When to Replace Your Wire Whip
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Wire tines are bent, splayed, or no longer hold their circular shape
⚠️ Whipped cream or egg whites won't reach stiff peaks even at high speed
⚠️ The whip scrapes or clunks against the bowl wall during operation
⚠️ Visible rust, pitting, or flaking on the wire tines contaminating food
🔍 Before ordering, confirm your mixer is a 5-quart bowl-lift model (not a tilt-head model — those use K45WW). Check your model number against the compatibility list below. After installation, verify the whip grazes — but does not press hard against — the bowl bottom; adjust the beater-to-bowl clearance screw on the mixer neck if needed.
