Paddle Mixers

Paddle mixers are valuable instruments to have around the worksite. As the name already suggests, the main component within this device is the paddle itself. The primary purpose is to blend a specific substance (or a combination of substances). Although their designs vary from brand to brand, there are several components that all modern paddle mixers have in common. Besides the paddles connected via a rotating shaft, built-in handles are present. These allow the user to maintain a firm grip on the device at all times. Plug-in cables power the vast majority depending on the requirements, and they are available in 100 or 240 volts. Higher voltages generally equate to more significant amounts of torque; very important when mixing notably viscous substances. A robust internal drive mechanism, dual speed controls and safety systems such as an overheating shut-off switch are other features that tend to be present in the most trusted models available at Buildworld.

Although the price is always an option, there are several other variables to consider. For example, what type of substances will the unit need to mix? Thicker substrates may need a mixer with a higher power rating. Smaller jobs could only require a basic model with lower levels of torque. Also, consider the type of hand grips offered and be certain that you are comfortable with their configuration. It is also wise to choose well-known brand names such as Makita and Bosch. These boast superior levels of reliability, and they are known for their quality craftsmanship.
