This offer ends in:
This 4-litre polycarbonate jug serves as a replacement component for the HS8002 blender. It processes liquids, soups, sauces and purees in commercial kitchens that operate continuous-service blenders. The jug arrives with a stainless steel 304 blade assembly and lid.
Commercial Application
Blender jugs experience thermal stress, impact damage and blade wear during daily service. Replacement jugs maintain operational continuity when the original unit cracks, becomes clouded or when the blade assembly dulls. A spare jug also supports back-to-back batch processing during peak service.
The 4-litre capacity handles single-batch sauce production or soup blending for restaurants preparing 20–40 portions. Polycarbonate construction resists thermal shock when blending hot liquids immediately after cold preparations. Food-grade PC material tolerates repeated dishwasher cycles without becoming opaque.
Key Operational Advantages
- Food-grade polycarbonate construction with 4.5 mm wall thickness
- 304 stainless steel blade assembly resists corrosion in acidic preparations
- 4-litre working capacity processes 3.2–3.6 litres per batch allowing headroom
- Direct compatibility with HS8002 blender motor coupling and locking mechanism
- Weighs 1.15 kg complete with blade and lid for easy handling during service
- Transparent body allows visual confirmation of blend consistency during operation

Construction & Build Quality
The jug body is moulded from food-grade polycarbonate at 4.5 mm wall thickness. The blade assembly uses 304 stainless steel to maintain edge sharpness through extended duty cycles. Polycarbonate offers impact resistance superior to glass or acrylic alternatives in commercial environments.
- 4.5 mm polycarbonate wall prevents deformation under motor torque
- 304 stainless steel blade retains sharpness after 500+ blend cycles
- Moulded polycarbonate tolerates temperatures from -40°C to +135°C
- Lid assembly forms hermetic seal to prevent spillage at high RPM
Suitable Operations
- Bakeries
- Hotel pastry kitchens
- Restaurant pastry sections
- Patisseries
- Commercial production facilities

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the usable working capacity of this 4-litre jug?
A: Working capacity is 3.2–3.6 litres per blend cycle. The 4-litre total volume includes 10–20% headroom to prevent overflow when blending liquids at high speed. Overfilling beyond the maximum fill line causes spillage and reduces blend efficiency.
Q: Does the jug ship with the blade assembly and lid?
A: Yes. The jug arrives complete with a 304 stainless steel blade assembly and polycarbonate lid. The blade is pre-installed on the jug base coupling. No additional components are required for operation.
Q: Is this jug compatible with blenders other than the HS8002 model?
A: No. The jug coupling and blade drive shaft are engineered specifically for the HS8002 blender motor housing. Using this jug on non-compatible models causes motor damage or blade detachment during operation.
Q: Can the polycarbonate jug withstand commercial dishwasher cycles?
A: Yes. Food-grade polycarbonate tolerates commercial dishwasher temperatures up to 85°C without warping or becoming opaque. Repeated thermal cycling does not compromise the jug's structural integrity or transparency over 1000+ wash cycles.
Q: How often should the blade assembly be replaced during normal operation?
A: Blade replacement depends on blend frequency and ingredient abrasiveness. Operations blending 40+ cycles daily may require blade replacement every 6–9 months. Visual inspection for edge dullness or longer blend times indicates blade wear.
