Sausage Tube Help

[thoseguys26]

I need some more varieties for sizes and lengths of sausage tubes for my grinder. My grinder is the Waring MG800 and it came with a Large and Small tube. They pretty much work for most things but I want a better small one and a longer small one (maybe 3/8" long tube for snack sticks, etc). 

Does anyone have this grinder that purchased some other tubes?

Most grinders seem to have a "#" associated with them but I can't find anything about the MG800.

I wasn't sure if most tubes are standard and universal.

Does anyone have any insight on plastic vs metal?

Thank you!

Here's the measurements if that will help:

I am going to guess this is a size 8 grinder, measure the diameter of your plate, my #32 plates are 3 and 7/8 inch across

If the plate is 2 1/2" it's size #8

I measured my Cabela’s #8 and it is real close. It is 2 ¼” and 3”, but where you have 2 ½” on the stuffing tube, mine measures 2 3/8”.   Cabela's sell the replacement kit for their equipment.  Here is a picture from one of mine….All of mine have this notch in it to keep the plate form spinning when in use......hope it helps…..
