The Multiquip 520540 Fixed Grate is a genuine OEM component designed for WM70SH8C and WM70SH5C Whiteman plaster and mortar mixers. As a direct OEM replacement, it is manufactured to the same specifications as the original part, ensuring a correct, consistent fit within the mixer drum assembly. Verified fitment covers the Mixers model codes WM70SH8C and WM70SH5C, so you can order with confidence knowing this is the right part for your machine.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Multiquip's original material and dimensional standards, ensuring the grate holds up to the abrasive conditions of continuous mortar and plaster mixing.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to mount in the same position as the factory grate, with no reworking of the drum assembly or mounting hardware required.
- Confirmed Fitment — Compatible with WM70SH8C and WM70SH5C Whiteman mortar mixer models; verify your model code before ordering.
- Maintains Consistent Mix Quality — A structurally sound fixed grate keeps material properly contained and agitated during the mix cycle, preventing uneven batches or material bypass.
- Durable Under Load — Built to withstand the repeated mechanical stress and material contact inherent to high-volume mortar and plaster mixing applications.
The fixed grate is a stationary retaining component mounted within the mixer drum that controls how material moves and is retained during the mixing cycle. It works in conjunction with the rotating drum and mixing paddles to ensure aggregate and mortar material are properly blended rather than bypassing the mixing zone. When the fixed grate is cracked, deformed, or worn, mixing efficiency drops, material may escape the drum prematurely, and the overall consistency of the batch is compromised — making timely replacement essential to keeping output quality on standard.
