HCN 0310 Concrete Mixer Bucket – The Ultimate On-Site Concrete Mixing Solution for Skid Steer Loaders

For contractors, landscapers, and construction professionals, few challenges are as persistent as the logistics of mixing and placing concrete on small to medium job sites. Traditional standalone mixers require separate transport, manual labor for loading and pouring, and significant setup time. The HCN 0310 Concrete Mixer Bucket eliminates these inefficiencies by transforming your skid steer loader into a mobile concrete mixing and dispensing station.

Designed as a direct attachment for skid steer loaders, compact wheel loaders, and backhoe loaders, the 0310 Concrete Mixer Bucket allows operators to scoop raw materials, mix on the go, transport the batch, and pour with precision—all without ever leaving the machine. This all-in-one functionality makes it an indispensable tool for sidewalks, driveways, footings, landscaping projects, and general construction work.

What Is a Concrete Mixer Bucket?

A concrete mixer bucket—also known as a cement mixer bucket or mixing bucket—is a hydraulic attachment that mounts to the quick-attach system of a skid steer loader or compact loader. Unlike traditional drum mixers that remain stationary, this attachment turns the loader itself into a mobile mixing plant.

The HCN 0310 model features a heavy-duty mixing chamber with replaceable auger paddles that rotate to mix concrete, mortar, cement grout, and stucco. The bucket can be loaded from the top—with an integrated bag splitter for easy cement bag handling—or it can scoop aggregates directly from piles. Once mixed, the material is dispensed through a manual side chute that provides accurate and controlled pouring.

Key Features of the HCN 0310 Concrete Mixer Bucket

The HCN 0310 is engineered for durability, efficiency, and ease of use. Below are its standout features:

1. 3-in-1 Efficient Operation
The bucket performs three critical functions in one attachment: scoop up raw materials, mix them thoroughly during transport, and dispense the finished concrete precisely where needed. This eliminates the need for separate mixing equipment and reduces manual handling.

2. Bolt-On Replaceable Auger Paddles
The mixing auger features bolt-on, replaceable paddles that can be swapped out when worn, extending the service life of the attachment and reducing maintenance costs.

3. Reversible Revolving Paddles
The paddles are designed to reverse direction, optimizing both the mixing process and the pouring operation for different material consistencies.

4. Heavy-Duty Hydraulic Drive System
Powered by a chain and sprocket drive hydraulic motor, the 0310 delivers reliable mixing performance across a wide range of flow rates. The upgraded motor is connected to the mixing shaft via a bridge mechanism that prevents cement from entering the bearing seat—extending bearing life to more than twice that of competing products.

5. Manual Side Chute for Precise Dispensing
The side chute dispenser allows operators to pour concrete with accuracy, reducing waste and ensuring material goes exactly where it belongs.

6. Removable Steel Grate with Bag Splitters
The top-mounted steel grate includes integrated bag splitters, making it easy to open and empty cement bags directly into the mixing chamber.

7. Universal Skid Steer Quick-Attach Mount
The 0310 is compatible with all major skid steer brands through a standard universal mount. Hoses and 1/2" flat-faced couplers are included, with protective cloth wrapping for hose durability.

8. Reinforced Construction with 40Cr Steel
The attachment uses 40Cr steel plate with a hardening process that delivers three times the gear life of ordinary factory manufacturing. The use of NM400 cutting edge plate—comparable to Hardox steel—ensures exceptional wear resistance.

9. Enlarged Grid Space for Easy Shoveling and Discharging
The grid design has been optimized to prevent cement from clogging during operation, solving a common problem that reduces efficiency in conventional mixer buckets.
