Paint mixer Polax 31-010, HEX shaft 80×400 mm for electric drill

Polax 31-010 paint mixer with a HEX shaft 80×400 mm is designed to attach to an electric drill for efficient mixing of paints, primers, adhesives and other liquid or viscous materials. The mixer’s geometry and length ensure thorough blending in containers of various sizes while the HEX shaft provides secure non-slip connection to the drill chuck. It is intended for use in construction, renovation and maintenance work where achieving a uniform consistency reduces manual effort and speeds up material preparation.

Advantages

The HEX shaft design delivers a reliable torque transfer and reduces slippage during operation, ensuring stable rotation even at higher drill speeds. The mixing head shape promotes efficient circulation and minimizes air entrapment in paint or primer, yielding consistent uniform mixtures. The 80×400 mm dimensions offer a balance between reach and control, allowing mixing in deeper buckets while maintaining manageable handling with a standard electric drill.

Suitable for

• Mixing water- and solvent-based paints
• Preparing primers and sealants
• Blending adhesives, mortar additives and fillers
• Stirring plaster, joint compound and other viscous construction materials

Key specifications

• Shaft type: HEX profile for secure connection to drill chuck
• Shaft dimensions: 80 mm (width) × 400 mm (length)
• Intended drive: standard electric drill
• Mixing head: designed for circulation and reduced air intake
• Material compatibility: paints, primers, adhesives, fillers and similar liquids/viscous substances

How to use

Secure the Polax 31-010 mixer into the drill chuck, ensuring the HEX shaft is firmly seated and tightened. Insert the mixing head into the material container so that it is submerged but not pressed against the bottom. Start the drill at low speed to avoid splashing, then gradually increase speed until the material becomes homogenous. Move the mixer gently through the container to reach all areas and ensure even mixing. After use, run the drill briefly in clean water or solvent if needed to remove residue before disconnecting.

Usage recommendations

Use personal protective equipment such as gloves and eye protection when mixing chemical products. Match drill speed and torque to the viscosity of the material to avoid overloading the drill motor. Clean the mixer promptly after use to prevent material buildup and check the shaft connection periodically for wear or deformation.
