The EM120HYD is Essick's 12 cu ft towable plaster and mortar mixer on a hydraulic drive with a hydraulic dump, turned by an 11.7 HP Honda GX390 and built on a 7-gauge steel drum. The hydraulic dump discharges into polyethylene mud tubs, which are ordered separately.

Shipping & Freight

For an order containing products from a single brand, shipping is a flat rate based on your order total:

  • Orders up to $5,000: $279
  • Orders $5,000 to $10,000: $347
  • Orders $10,000 and over: $517

These rates cover standard freight delivery to a commercial address. After you place your order, our team will confirm your delivery timeline within 1 to 3 business days.

Ordering from more than one brand? Multi-brand orders ship on separate freight and are quoted individually rather than at the flat rate above. Place your order or contact us first and we will confirm total freight before anything is finalized.

Liftgate service is not included in these rates. If your delivery location has no loading dock or forklift to unload the freight from the truck, liftgate service is required and will be added to your shipping charge. If you are unsure whether you need it, contact us before ordering.

Commercial delivery locations are preferred when available. Residential delivery, limited-access locations, and appointment scheduling may affect handling.

Lead times vary by product, manufacturer availability, and selected options. Some configured, special-order, or non-stock items require additional processing time before they ship.

Please inspect all freight shipments at delivery before signing. If you see visible damage, note it with the carrier and contact us as soon as possible.

If you need freight, delivery, or lead-time guidance before ordering, contact our team before you purchase.

Compatibility / Fitment

Compatibility varies by product type, machine setup, selected options, and intended application.

For machine-mounted equipment and attachments, buyers should confirm fitment before ordering using the relevant machine information, including model, attachment style, mount type, coupler type, hydraulic requirements, and any other product-specific requirements listed on the page.

Hardscape Heavy can assist with pre-order fitment guidance based on the information you provide. This guidance is limited to purchase and compatibility review before ordering and does not include field installation, hydraulic modification, fabrication, or on-site setup support.

If you are unsure whether a product will work with your machine or application, contact us before placing the order.

Returns & Warranty

Warranty coverage is provided by the product manufacturer where applicable. Warranty terms, coverage periods, exclusions, and claim procedures vary by brand and product type.

Hardscape Heavy does not create separate warranty coverage beyond the manufacturer’s warranty unless explicitly stated on the product page.

Because many products in this category involve freight shipping, special ordering, or configuration-specific selections, return eligibility may vary by product and condition. Special-order, custom-configured, used, damaged, or installed items may not be eligible for return.

Please review our full return policy before purchase. If you have questions about return eligibility or manufacturer warranty coverage for a specific item, contact us before ordering.

Where a mason's mixer has to take the stiffest mixes a job puts through it, the drive between the engine and the paddle shaft is what decides whether the machine works or stalls. The EM120HYD runs a hydraulic drive rather than a belt or a gearbox, so torque arrives at the paddles as pressure rather than as friction, and a load that would slip a belt simply draws more oil. The dump is hydraulic too, which means a full drum empties on a lever instead of on the operator's back.

Discharge is aimed at polyethylene mud tubs, and the machine is built around that workflow: the drum tips under power straight into the tub rather than into a barrow that then has to be moved. The paddle shaft seals are spring loaded and self adjusting, requiring no greasing at all, which is the failure point that normally ends a mixer's life once grit works into a grease fitting. This is built for the plastering and masonry crews running heavy mixes into tubs all day, not for the crew that mixes by the barrow.

Common Applications

  • Mixing heavy plaster and stucco mixes into polyethylene mud tubs
  • Mixing mortar for masonry and block work at full crew scale
  • Mixing stiff structural mixes that would slip a belt-driven machine
  • Towed batch work where the mixer moves between sites behind a truck

Selection Notes

  • Choose this over the mechanical-gearbox EM12M where the mixes are stiffest and where a hydraulic dump into tubs is the workflow, rather than a manual dump into barrows
  • Mud tubs are not supplied with the machine and are ordered separately; specify them at the same time if the discharge workflow depends on them
  • The drum wall here is 7 gauge against the EM12M's 9 gauge, so this is the thicker-walled of the two 12 cu ft machines as well as the hydraulically driven one
