Stainless steel replacement feed tube
Match the 030797 part reference and your machine’s installed feed-tube configuration before selecting a replacement. Keep the C prefix when identifying a C161; it is a distinct model designation from 161.
When to inspect your feed tube
Inspect the tube for visible wear or damage when troubleshooting inconsistent texture or overrun. These symptoms can have more than one cause, so check the feed tube’s condition, cleanliness, and installation using your machine’s instructions before deciding it needs replacement.
Confirm fitment before ordering
Verify 030797 in the parts documentation for your machine model and serial number. Contact Soft Serve Parts with those details and your existing part reference if you need help confirming the correct feed tube.
