In our opinion, a simple thank you does not suffice. You deserve more. From the beginning, we have realized the success of Con-Tech is directly attributed to the quality of the product we provide, and the success stories of Con-Tech customers within their communities. We will not deviate from our roots our commitment to you has made us a market leader.
The BridgeKing®, Extreme Duty™ and Extended Tag models represent years of commitment, loyalty, and innovation in the ready mix industry. At Con-Tech, our mixers have been revised, updated, and redesigned, but our dedication to provide you with the best product for the job has remained the same.
The Extended Tag configuration is a suspensionbase upgrade to our Extreme Duty™ standard mixer package. The dual steerable pusher and extended Watson & Chalin® steerable tag axle creates a longer wheelbase which results in increased efficiencies, larger payloads, and increased profits. In partnership with Con-Tech's HP™ Drum, the Extended Tag addition offers more flexibility in maximizing your payload
• Easy and balanced operation while loaded, at the job site, or empty
• Up to 10+ yards legal payload on federal bridge formula, with some state roads 12+ yards legal payload
• Scan code for video testimonial on the XT axle configuration, as well as the HP™ Drum:SCAN HERE
The Extreme Duty™ standard mixer has the ability and the flexibility to maximize your profits because reliability, serviceability, and profitability are builtin to the design. We don't cut corners, we don't sacrifice quality, and we don't charge extra for our best ideas. The Extreme Duty™ mixer is the workhorse of Con-Tech. It has the capability to take your operation to the next level. Safety, efficiency, and your bottom line are the principles that have gotten us here.
• Equipped with proven components such as Eaton® hydraulics, ZF® gearbox, and Aeroquip hoses and fittings
• Scan code for testimonial on a customer's switch to XD™ after decades running front discharge:
Our bread and butter—the Con-Tech® BridgeKing® allows for the most efficient load delivery while maintaining federal bridge compliancy. Our bridge trailer maximizes your payload while en route to the job site, and minimizes your footprint while heading back to the plant. Our flexible design allows us to engineer equipment built specifically for your region and your operation. From extreme paving down to wheel barrow filling, the BridgeKing® is the answer.
• Utilizes the same polyurethane ATRO bushings for trailer and booster cylinder for optimum performance and minimal maintenance
• Scan code for a video walkthrough and in-service lesson from our service department on the BridgeKing® mixer:
The Con-Tech® High Performance™ Drum is designed from head to toe with the producer in mind. From the material we use, to the manufacturing process, to the jobsite, we have developed the drum that sets a new the industry standard. Expect smooth, consistent pours from extreme paving to filling wheel
NEW! Tail Cone Fin Hole Configuration with Elevated Surge Fins: Limits buildup, improves mixing, and reduces wear on your equipment

One-Piece Solid Roller Track: Pre-machined and crowned — eliminates weld cracking and increases structural integrity over hollow designs
High Capacity Mixing Bowl: 25% increase in
mixing area with a lower center of gravity for improved stability
Ball Buster Paddle
System: Drastically reduces or eliminates cement balls
5/16 Hatch Frame with Tapped Holes: Increases frame thickness by 85% and eliminates squarewelded nuts
Removable Lifting Lug: For easy and safe drum removal and replacement — a removable lifting lug is included with each HP drum
The High Performance™ Drum is OEM CON-TECH MANUFACTURING, INC. & WILL FIT mtm MIXERS
IT’S WHAT’S ON THE INSIDE THAT COUNTS.
Other brand fins
Con-Tech’s patented design allows smooth concrete to flow through each hole and immediately fold into the mixture coming over the top of the fin.
EFFICIENT MIXING
EcoFin® provides a more homogenized mix faster and more efficient than ever before. Each fin contains multiple mixing holes to incorporate each component with ease.
MAXIMIZED CAPACITY
Mixing holes allow for concrete to pass through the fins along the drum skin. This process creates a larger mixing area, increasing the capacity of the mixing chamber.
REDUCED WEAR & TEAR
The EcoFin® allows the material to flow through the fin rather than against it. This reduces stress and fatigue on the mixing fins and drum shell connection point.
Time is money. That is why we include features that will benefit our customers’ bottom line and will continue to innovate in order to minimize your down time. Not only do we engineer the technology, we also provide the support and access to parts you need to maintain the technology.
Our parts department is designed to keep the everexpanding Con-Tech fleet making money. We’re the most “local” national brand you’ll encounter and our service reflects that.

The Con-Tech® Poly Water Tank system was developed in response to needs in the industry. The optional poly water tank removes the need for a pressurized water tank on your mixer while providing increased washout pressure — this system adds value through durability, safety, and minimal maintenance.
Non-Pressurized: Safer, non-pressurized poly water tank utilizes air operated water pump
Power & Safety: Dual Diaphragm pump capable of up to 90 psi water pressure at the rear of the mixer
Minimal Design: Integrated sight tube minimizes the need for numerous attaching parts
Efficient Wash Downs: Increased water pressure equates to more thorough and quicker wash downs and water usage is minimized
Standard Components: Uses standard flopper seal with “thru-bolts” on flange
Simple Maintenance: Poly tank does not require any surface coating or paint
New Industry Standard: Wall thickness and material composition unmatched in the industry
Straight-Forward Fittings: Replaceable, common “ag type” threaded adapter fittings are readily available
Resistant to Elements: Poly water tanks are more resistant to environmental and typical industry damage (i.e rust, corrosion, scale, paint chipping, etc.)
Easy to Read Gauges: Dual sight gauge tubes
increase viewing angle to front/rear of mixer in cross-mount applications — easy-to-read scale
Thoughtful Materials for the Elements: Large rubber sight tubes embedded in the tank resist damage from impact or freezing
Grab Handles Incorporated: Tank head contains molded grab handles, eliminating the need for additional bolt-on components
Saves You Money: Replacement cost of a poly tank is considerably less than a “weight-similar” aluminum tank
The Con-Tech Poly Water Tank System is OEM CON-TECH MANUFACTURING, INC. & WILL FIT mtm MIXERS
