The blending arm consists of a tube with a bladed knife located at one end. Specified for
immersion blenders(see “Device type”) and other devices equipped with the appropriate attachment (see “Attachments”). Usually there are such options:
—
Plastic. Plastic is a popular material for blending arms because it is lightweight, inexpensive, and easy to manufacture in various colors and even transparency. It is susceptible to scratches and less strong than metal, but this is not critical as blending arms are not subject to significant stress. Overall, plastic is a convenient and widely used material.
—
Metal. Metal blending arms are strong and scratch-resistant, giving them a solid appearance. However, they are heavier and more expensive than plastic ones, making them more commonly used in premium blender models where design is as important as functionality.
