Mixing Paddle GEKO HEX 100x170x600 mm, shaft 50 mm

Mixing Paddle GEKO HEX 100x170x600 mm with a 50 mm hexagonal shaft is a dedicated cup-style agitator created for mixing mortars, adhesives, paints and various construction compounds. The robust cup geometry and reinforced walls promote efficient circulation of medium to high viscosity materials, reducing air entrainment and producing a more uniform mix. The 50 mm hex shaft provides a secure connection to compatible drill or mixer chucks that accept hexagonal drive interfaces, ensuring stable operation during renovation and construction tasks.

Advantages

The paddle's cup design enables strong axial and radial flow to break up lumps and integrate powders into liquids. Its dimensions (100×170×600 mm) balance mixing volume with maneuverability, while the 50 mm hexagonal shaft minimizes slippage and improves torque transfer. Constructed for demanding site use, the GEKO HEX paddle is compatible with electric drills and mixers capable of handling cup paddles and hex drive shafts.

Suitable for

• Mixing cement and tile adhesives
• Preparing plaster and render mortars
• Blending paints and primers
• Mixing epoxy and resin-based compounds
• Stirring ready-mix construction compounds and fillers

Key specifications

• Cup diameter: 100 mm
• Cup depth/extended geometry: 170 mm
• Total length: 600 mm
• Shaft profile: hexagonal
• Shaft size across flats: 50 mm
• Intended materials: medium to high viscosity mixes (mortars, adhesives, paints, resins)
• Compatibility: electric drills and mixers with matching hex drive or adapter

How to use

Attach the 50 mm hexagonal shaft securely into a drill or mixer designed to accept that profile or use an appropriate adapter. Place the paddle into the mixing container so the cup is immersed in the material before starting. Run the drill at moderate speed to begin incorporating powders into liquids, increasing speed carefully if needed to achieve homogenous consistency; avoid excessive speed that may cause splashing or excessive air entrainment. Periodically lift and reposition the paddle to ensure even mixing throughout the batch. After use, clean the paddle promptly with water or a suitable solvent according to the mixed material to prevent residue buildup.

Usage recommendations

Use protective equipment (gloves, eye protection) and select a drill or mixer with sufficient power and torque for medium to high viscosity materials. For large batches or very viscous compounds, operate at lower speeds with higher torque to preserve motor life and reduce overheating. Store the paddle dry and clean to prevent corrosion and inspect the hex shaft for burrs before inserting into the tool.
