Mixing Drills

Mixing Drills Information

A Mixing Drill, also known by various other names including Mixer Drill, Power Mixer and Paddle Mixer, is not really a drill in the normal sense of the word. It is designed solely for mixing and preparing paint, cement, plaster, fillers, adhesives and other similar building materials. As such it is not used with standard drill bits but a mixing paddle, which is screwed onto a threaded spindle rather than being held in a chuck (though mixing paddles are also available for use in chucked drills as well). Mixing drills need fairly powerful motors to operate efficiently and it is rare to find cordless options, though there is currently one available on the DeWalt Flexvolt 54v platform: the DCD240.

Mixing Drill Safety:

Unless otherwise stated, mixing drills are not intended for mixing flammable materials. Take care whenever using electrical equipment around liquids and be aware that dusts generated by some materials can cause skin and respiratory irritation so make sure to wear suitable clothing and safety equipment.
