The patented vertical paddle design uses reversible rubber blades that continuously move material through the drum, preventing buildup, reducing splashing, and eliminating common clogging issues found in traditional mixers.

Yes. The Refractory Mud Hog is fully customizable with different capacities, power options, and configurations to meet specific industrial requirements.

Unlike standard mortar mixers, the Refractory Mud Hog is built specifically for heavier, more abrasive refractory materials. It provides more aggressive mixing action and improved consistency for dense, low-moisture mixes.

“Our Refractory Mud Hog (RMH) is well-built and durable. We purchased our first in 2004, and it is still operating great for us. The RMH allows for more efficient, safer, and easier casting. Downtime is not an issue with the RMH, and maintenance and cleaning are simple and easy for our team.”
