The Multiquip EM202896 Center Engine End Paddle Arm is a genuine OEM replacement designed for Essick and Whiteman mortar and plaster mixer models, including the EM70P/S, WM70S/P, EM70SLF, WM70SLF, and WM70PLF series. As a direct OEM component, EM202896 is manufactured to the same specifications as the original part, ensuring correct geometry and fit within the mixer drum assembly. This paddle arm mounts at the center engine end of the mixing drum, making it a critical structural and functional component in the material agitation system. If you are servicing an Essick or Whiteman 70-series mixer, confirm your model code against the fitment list before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to exact original tolerances, so the arm seats and articulates correctly within the drum without adjustment or modification.
- Correct Engine-End Positioning — Engineered specifically for the center engine end mounting location, ensuring proper paddle alignment and even material distribution throughout the drum.
- Broad 70-Series Mixer Fitment — Compatible with EM70P/S, WM70S/P, EM70SLF, WM70SLF, and WM70PLF models across the Essick and Whiteman mixer families.
- Maintains Mixing Efficiency — A worn or bent paddle arm causes uneven agitation, leading to inconsistent mortar or plaster batches; replacing it restores full mixing performance.
- Direct OEM Source — Sold by DHS Equipment as an authorized Multiquip part, so the part number EM202896 is traceable and verified against current OEM documentation.
The paddle arm is one of the rotating agitator components mounted inside the mixer drum. It works in conjunction with the other paddle arms to continuously fold and blend mortar, plaster, or stucco mix as the drum rotates, ensuring a homogeneous batch. The center engine end arm bears significant mechanical stress due to its position closest to the drive assembly — over time, this can cause bending, cracking, or wear at the mounting points. A damaged paddle arm results in poor material blending, increased load on the drive system, and uneven mix consistency that can compromise the quality of the finished application.
