Wega/VBM Portafilter Body
A portafilter body threaded for an M12 metric handle, with wings positioned at 3 and 9 o'clock, 6.3 mm thick. It accepts any standard basket and uses a 3/8" thread for the spout — a near-universal fit across E61-style groups.

INSTALLATION
A moderate DIY task — the handle threads straight into the M12 bore, but confirm your existing basket seats correctly before finishing assembly.
PRO TIPS
- Wing thickness and position matter more than they look like they should — at 6.3 mm and mounted at 3/9 o'clock, this body won't drop into a group designed for thinner or differently-angled ears, so match your existing portafilter's wing geometry, not just the brand name, before ordering.
