The Binks High Speed Quick-Mixers are hand-held,
compact, and versatile units for use in the shop or on
the job.
A unique feature of the Quick Mixer is the vertical and
horizontal blade design which moves the material
toward the center of the mixer at all times assuring
thorough blending. The mixer is also designed to scrape
the bottom and sides of the container without injuring
the mixer or puncturing container walls.
A table of approximate mixing speeds is shown below
for your convenience. The use of an electric drill is not
recommended for mixing paint or other highly
flammable materials.
