Grip grater Microplane 43302 — stainless steel manual grater/spiralizer, 304×63×18 mm

Microplane 43302 Grip grater is a stainless steel manual grater and spiralizer in a compact flat design sized 304 × 63 × 18 mm. This tool combines a fine ribbon-style cutting surface with a sturdy stainless-steel frame to perform zesting, shredding and producing vegetable spirals. It is intended for preparing citrus zest, hard cheeses, firm fruits and vegetables and other common kitchen tasks where precise, durable cutting performance and easy cleaning are required.

Advantages

The stainless-steel construction offers corrosion resistance and long-lasting cutting edges while remaining simple to rinse and maintain. The ribbon-style blade provides consistent, elongated shreds rather than torn pieces, preserving texture and releasing flavor in citrus and cheeses. Its flat, compact form factor is convenient for storage and for use over bowls, platters or cutting boards. The tool’s design supports controlled manual operation for precise results with a range of ingredients from soft to firm.

Suitable for

• Zesting citrus (lemons, limes, oranges)
• Shredding hard cheeses (Parmesan, Pecorino)
• Creating vegetable spirals (zucchini, carrot, cucumber)
• Grating chocolate or firm fruit for garnishes
• General prep tasks where fine, elongated shreds are desired

Key specifications

• Material: stainless steel cutting surface and frame
• Overall dimensions: 304 × 63 × 18 mm
• Cut style: ribbon-style (fine elongated shreds)
• Design: flat, manual grater/spiralizer
• Intended food types: citrus, hard cheeses, firm fruits and vegetables

How to use

Hold the grater firmly by the handle or frame and move the ingredient across the cutting surface with even pressure to produce consistent shreds or spirals. For zesting citrus, apply light pressure and move the fruit across the blade to remove only the colored outer peel. For shredding cheese, press the edge of the cheese against the ribbon blade and slide steadily to create elongated pieces. When producing vegetable spirals, use steady, controlled strokes and adjust pressure to the firmness of the vegetable to avoid clogging or uneven cuts. Rinse promptly after use to remove food residue.

Usage recommendations

Use a firm, non-slip surface or a bowl beneath the grater for stability. Avoid applying excessive force that could bend the frame; do not use on bones or overly hard frozen items. Clean by rinsing under running water and, if necessary, use a soft brush to remove trapped particles. Dry thoroughly before storage to maintain blade condition.
