Comandante Central Axis for C60 Baracuda
The moment the beans glide between the burrs and the crank finds its rich, even rotation—right there, in the heart of your C60 Baracuda, sits the component that drives this movement.
The stainless steel central axis transfers every turn directly to the grinder. It guides the cone cleanly in alignment, ensuring particles fall evenly—and it's precisely this evenness that creates a clear, balanced cup profile.
What makes this axis special
The C60 Baracuda uses the larger GX50 drive and its own geometry. This axis is precisely designed for it and fits exclusively into the C60—not the classic C40. Stainless steel means dimensional stability for years: the axis maintains its alignment, even after thousands of rotations.
Anyone who maintains their grinder will eventually disassemble it down to the axis. A spare part like this keeps a tool alive that is built for a lifetime of coffee. Our opinion is one of many—but good equipment deserves good spare parts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the axis also fit a C40?
No. This axis is built exclusively for the C60 Baracuda. The C40 MK3 and MK4 use their own central axis.
What material is the axis made of?
Stainless steel—dimensionally stable, corrosion-resistant, and designed for the lifetime of the grinder.
When do I need a replacement axis?
Mostly during a thorough cleaning, when reassembling after disassembly, or if a part was lost. In everyday use, the axis usually remains untouched.
Can I see the part before purchase in Bern or Zurich?
Our showrooms in Bern (Gerberngasse 44) and Zurich (Hagenholzstrasse 50b) show a wide selection, but not our entire range – the display changes. Drop us a quick line at [email protected] before your visit, and we will check whether the product you have in mind is currently there. You can buy online at any time, with delivery in 2–4 working days to Switzerland and Liechtenstein.
From our coffee roastery: A freshly serviced grinder deserves fresh beans. For a dense, chocolatey cup profile, most reach for Cozy Chocolate or Nutty Delight. If you like it nutty and without acidity, choose Very Nutty; for fruity discoveries, there's Wild Peach. This is our recommendation, one of many.
