Product Description

MRC Impeller No. 24

is a 100 mm (3.94 in.) perforated gate impeller designed for low-speed blending, homogenizing, heat-transfer support, and suspension maintenance in medium-to-high-viscosity materials. Its broad framed geometry promotes tangential-dominant circulation across the vessel, while the central member and side perforations help engage material throughout the mixing zone.

Applications

Viscous Liquid Blending

Designed to move medium-to-high-viscosity liquids through broad, low-speed circulation where gentle bulk blending is preferred over high-speed dispersion.

Creams, Gels, and Pastes

Suitable for laboratory and small-batch processing of creams, gels, syrups, soft pastes, and similar formulations requiring controlled, low-shear movement.

Paints, Coatings, Resins, and Adhesives

Supports slow blending and homogenization of compatible coatings, resins, adhesives, and formulation intermediates where broad vessel engagement is useful.

Heat-Transfer Support

The wide frame can help circulate material between the vessel wall and central region during heating or cooling processes, subject to suitable vessel clearance and product rheology.

Suspension Maintenance

Can help maintain compatible solids or formulation components in suspension during slow-speed processing, particularly where high shear is undesirable.

Features

• Closed gate-style frame provides broad engagement across the mixing zone.
• Central vertical member moves material closer to the shaft and reinforces the frame.
• Six visible side perforations allow material to pass through the outer members.
• Suitable for low-speed, higher-torque blending of viscous formulations.
• Low-to-moderate-shear operation supports shear-sensitive materials.
• Rounded lower corners reduce sharp internal transitions in the frame geometry.
