Tamco polypropylene mixing paddle, 36-inch chemical-resistant tank mixer with an 8-1/2-inch blade, solid 3/4-inch handle, and 250°F temperature rating gives you dependable control for industrial mixing tasks. Its long reach helps you work inside drums, tanks, vats, and other deep containers while keeping your hands farther from the material being mixed. The paddle uses 100% polypropylene from the blade through the solid rod handle. This material won’t rust like untreated metal and stands up well in many demanding process areas. You can use it where moisture, cleaning chemicals, or corrosive materials may damage common mixing tools. Its simple one-piece style is also easy to rinse after use.

A 36-inch overall length gives you added reach without making the paddle too heavy to manage. The solid handle measures 3/4 inch in diameter, so it feels stable during manual mixing. At only 1.5 pounds, the paddle reduces strain during routine jobs and remains easy to carry between workstations, storage areas, and processing equipment. The blade measures 8-1/2 inches long, 2-1/2 inches wide, and 1/8 inch thick. This narrow, flat shape helps move liquids, powders, slurries, and blended materials through a container. It works well for controlled hand mixing when you need to reach the bottom, scrape through settled material, or blend ingredients more evenly.

This Tamco mixing paddle handles temperatures up to 250°F, making it useful for many heated processing and maintenance tasks. Always confirm that your material is compatible with polypropylene before use. Item 8POP3 offers a practical choice for plants, laboratories, workshops, and service teams that need a reusable, corrosion-resistant paddle with extended reach. Use this long polypropylene paddle for blending cleaning solutions, treatment chemicals, pigments, coatings, or water-based mixtures in deep containers. It can also support maintenance work where teams prepare wash solutions or combine process ingredients by hand. The extended shaft gives you useful distance when working around warm liquids or containers with high sidewalls.

In laboratories and pilot plants, the paddle can help with small-batch preparation before materials move into larger production equipment. Its lightweight form makes it practical for repeated sampling, test batches, and formula adjustments. Because the blade and handle use the same plastic material, there are no exposed metal parts that may corrode during normal contact. Manufacturing teams can keep the paddle near mixing stations, drum storage areas, or cleaning systems for quick manual blending. The broad blade reaches through settled layers and helps bring material from the bottom toward the surface. Its smooth polypropylene surface also has fewer complex areas where residue can collect, supporting easier cleanup and visual inspection.

The paddle may also be useful in water treatment, plating, food-support areas, agricultural processing, and general facility care when polypropylene suits the material. It provides a simple mixing option when powered equipment isn’t needed or available. You can guide the blade slowly for controlled movement without the splash and speed created by motor-driven mixers. Store the paddle in a clean, dry location away from sharp tools that could cut or gouge the plastic. Inspect the blade and shaft before each job, especially after high-temperature service or contact with harsh chemicals. Proper cleaning and storage can help preserve the smooth surface, solid handle, and dependable shape through repeated industrial use.
