🔗 The lock that holds the entire incubator together.
The GACOS is the hook with a threaded insert that connects the lower shell to the upper shell. If it breaks or loosens, the two shells will no longer seal properly, and you lose heat and moisture.

Quick diagnosis: shells that do not engage, broken or bent hook, stripped threaded insert, closure that does not hold.

Solution: Original FIEM GACOS for COSMO, COSMO EVO, and COSMO ML incubators. Price each.

📌 Real case: A customer in Treviso with a COSMO EVO had a car that wouldn't close properly and was losing heat. He thought it was an electrical problem, but it was just a broken GACOS. It was replaced in 2 minutes, and the problem was solved for less than 3 euros.

⚠️ When to replace: If the two shells no longer fit securely or you notice any play between the parts, check the GACOS immediately. An imperfect seal disperses heat and moisture.

⚙️ How does GACOS work?

The GACOS is the fastening system that holds together the two halves of the COSMO incubator: the lower body (bottom) and the upper body. It consists of a metal hook and a threaded insert that screw together, creating a secure and stable closure.

A tight seal is essential for maintaining a constant temperature and humidity inside the incubation chamber. If the GACOS are broken, loose, or missing, the two shells won't fit together perfectly, creating invisible gaps that disperse heat.

📋 Exploded view reference: This component corresponds to number 6 in the exploded view diagrams of FIEM COSMO incubators. Useful for identification during maintenance.


🔍 When to replace this part

Replace the GACOS if you notice:

  • Broken or bent hook: The metal hook has broken or become deformed.
  • Stripped threaded insert: the thread is worn and no longer holds.
  • Shells that don't fit together: the two shells no longer fit together securely.
  • Play between the shells: the two halves move even when they are hooked together.
  • Heat loss: the temperature fluctuates despite the heating element and thermostat working.

⚠️ Why it happens and what you risk

GACOS are damaged primarily by mechanical wear: opening and closing the incubator hundreds of times over the years stresses the mechanism. Excessive force when closing or accidental impacts can also break them.

A broken GACOS means an imperfect seal. Even a small gap between the two shells causes heat and humidity to escape. Temperature fluctuates, humidity drops, and hatching is affected. People often think it's a problem with the heating element or thermostat, but a few euros for a new GACOS will solve the problem.


✅ Compatibility verified

This hook is specific for FIEM incubators of the COSMO series:


📦 COSMO EVO / EVO Plus
Versions with color LCD control unit


📦 COSMO ML (MiniLed Advanced)
Version with 3-digit digital display

⚠️ Important note: This hook is specific to the COSMO series. It is NOT compatible with SMART, INCA, CIP CIP, or MG which have different locking systems.

🔧 Assembly in 3 simple steps

⏱ Estimated time: 2-5 minutes | 🔧 Tools: Phillips screwdriver (if needed)

  1. Remove damaged GACOS
    Unscrew or unhook the old GACOS from its mounting point. If the insert is stripped, you may need to remove it with pliers.
  2. Enter the new GACOS
    Place the threaded insert into the hole in the body and screw the hook until it locks securely.
  3. Final test
    Close the incubator and check that the two shells fit snugly together without any play. Try opening and closing them several times to make sure the latch holds securely.

🛡️ How to make them last longer

  • Every 6 months: check that the hooks are tight and that there is no play.
  • During use: close the incubator gently, without forcing the hooks.
  • ⚠️ DON'T: never force the door to close if the frames are not aligned, do not hang weights on the hooks.

Fiem Cosmo Incubator Fan Protection Net

€29.60
Availability: 1000 In Stock

✅ Original FIEM 🚚 24h Shipping 🇮🇹 Italian assistance ⭐ 45 years of experience

🛡️ The invisible barrier that protects the fan blades and your hands.
The COSMO fan guard prevents feathers, shells, and foreign objects from getting caught in the rotating blades. It protects the fan motor from damage and ensures a constant and safe airflow.

Quick diagnosis: broken or punctured mesh, loosened mesh, deformed mesh touching the blades, abnormal noises from the fan.

Solution: Original FIEM Q12 Fan Protection Net for COSMO, COSMO EVO and COSMO ML incubators.

📌 Real case: A farmer in Brescia heard a rhythmic noise from his COSMO ML. He thought it was the engine that needed replacing. In reality, the safety net was warped and was touching the blades with every rotation. He replaced the net in 10 minutes, and the noise disappeared.

⚠️ When to replace it: If the mesh is broken, warped, or has loosened holes, you risk debris entering the fan, causing motor damage or sudden blockages.

ABS Lower Body for Fiem Cosmo Incubator

€61.88
Availability: 200 In Stock

✅ Original FIEM 🚚 24h Shipping 🇮🇹 Italian assistance ⭐ 45 years of experience

🏠 The foundation on which the entire incubator rests.
The COSMO base is the lower ABS shell that contains the humidity trays, supports the support mesh, and holds up the entire structure. If it cracks or breaks, you lose its watertightness, moisture retention, and stability.

Quick diagnosis: visible cracks, water leaks from the trays, body deformed by heat, breaks at the corners or attachment points.

Solution: Original FIEM COSMO primer in high-strength ABS. Compatible with COSMO, COSMO EVO, and COSMO ML.

📌 Real case: A customer in Vicenza with a COSMO incubator had a cracked bottom after 8 years of use. Water leaked from the trays, and the humidity never rose above 40%. After replacing the bottom, the incubator returned to working perfectly with stable humidity.

⚠️ When to replace it: If you notice cracks, warping, or water leaks, the bottom should be replaced. A damaged shell compromises airtightness and humidity, ruining entire broods.

ABS Thermometer Holder for Fiem Cip Cip 28 and...

€0.65
Availability: 1000 In Stock

🔧 Do you know what the most underrated part of the incubator is? The little clip that holds the thermometer in place!

It may seem incredible, but this tiny ABS clip, worth just €0.53 (excluding VAT), is essential for holding the thermometer in the correct position. The 17A clip is FIEM's specific support for the 05/A thermometer.

💡 If the thermometer doesn't stay in place or moves while turning the eggs, the readings become unreliable. A damaged clip can compromise temperature monitoring, which is crucial for hatching.

⚠️ As specified in the FIEM manual, the thermometer should be inserted into the clip from the bottom up, rotating slightly—never attach it from the front to avoid breakage. This correct procedure protects both the thermometer and the clip itself.

📍 When should you replace it? If the thermometer won't stay in place, if it moves or falls, if you see cracks in the plastic, or if you need to use alternative means to hold it in place. Given the minimal cost, it's a good idea to have a spare.

✅ Compatible with all Smart, CipCip 28 and CipCip 40 models. In the 2025 price list it is indicated as "ABS THERMOMETER HOLDER" and costs only €0.53.

🛒 Important: This item requires a minimum order of €20 (excluding VAT). You can add the 05/A thermometer for €22.05, which already exceeds the threshold, or other small spare parts such as the P67 cable gland (€0.63) or the MEMB.TAST.DIG keyboard membrane (€2.80).

📱 Not sure about compatibility? Send us a photo of the incubator, model plate, current clip, and thermometer on WhatsApp . We'll confirm everything promptly during business hours.

🚚 We ship from Como in 1 business day, with delivery throughout Italy in 2-4 days. FIEM since 1975 , we at Padovan Avicoltura are official distributors with the entire range of spare parts always available. 24-month warranty for private individuals, 12 months for VAT numbers.
