Toro mortar mixers

Words: Dan KamysToro’s new line of mortar mixers are built for light-, medium- and heavy-duty jobs with durable construction, an easy-to-clean design, and simple maintenance. Based on high-quality, proven designs from its acquisition of Stone Construction Equipment products, the Toro mortar mixer has six-, eight-, 11- and 12-cubic-foot batch capacities.

The Toro line features the MMX-1158H-S mortar mixer, which offers contractors an extreme-duty mixer with a unique drum profile and patented paddle configuration to mix mortar quickly and completely. With a batch capacity of up to 11 cubic feet of material, a Honda GX240 engine, and a steel drum, this model is great for jobsites on which time is critical or for specialty mix applications. Select from either a pintle, stamped or forged tow pole hitch option to customize your mortar mixer for your towing needs, and maximize your jobsite efficiency.
