Precision and Power for Your Paddles


Vitrex, a quality brand of QEP, has launched the Vitrex 18V Cordless Power Mixer, bringing greater control and a long runtime to make short work of on-site mixing duties. With the new Vitrex Xtreme Pro-Series 18V Cordless Power Mixer, installers can enjoy quicker and easier on-site mixes for all kinds of on-site jobs. From mixing paint and tiling grout to plaster, adhesives and screeds; there’s very little that the Vitrex Xtreme Pro-Series 18V Cordless Power Mixer can’t tackle.


Made with a die-cast metal gear case and featuring a powerful brushless motor for a long lifetime, the Vitrex 18V Cordless Power Mixer can withstand daily use and mixes any compound used in tiling projects with precise control. Comfort too is maximised with a low weight of just 3.4kg and an ergonomic dual handle design that makes it easy to hold.


A two-speed gearbox and variable six speed dial allow for fine control of paddles, adjusting to any compound being mixed for the perfect result. And with soft start that gradually increases the speed to the chosen setting, splattering is greatly reduced. For safety when not in use, the mixer’s trigger lock mechanism will also stop unwanted operation. The mixer runs on the QEP CONNECT battery system and is compatible with QEP 18V 4.0Ah Lithium-ion batteries. With a dual set-up, these high- performance packs deliver an impressive 40-minute run time off a single charge and can be charged with the QEP Cordless Fast Charger. Vitrex is bundling batteries, charger and paddle in with every mixer sold, so you can start to enjoy the efficiency and ease of this robust mixer straight away.
