What is a Concrete Pourer?
The Concrete Pourer, also known as the Concrete Skip, is a digger attachment with two spouts. One of the spouts is at the front of the attachment facing away from the machine. This is useful for the operator to aim the concrete when pouring into form-work or shuttering.
The other spout is at the rear of the attachment facing towards the machine. Pouring towards the machine gives the operator better vision. This in turn really helps with aiming the concrete accurately when pouring.
Why use a Concrete Pourer?
As the name suggests, this specific attachment is used for pouring concrete. However the design makes it easy for an operator to aim better when pouring. This unique design enables the operator to spread concrete evenly in either direction. Which in turn should eliminate the need for workers to be close, during the pouring process.

Which size of machine will this attachment fit?
Unlike other products available on the market, the Masterhitch Concrete Pourer can be attached to any machine from 8 to 22 tonnes. These are typically the size of excavators most commonly found on construction sites.
It can also be supplied with the facility for either standard pin or ‘Quick Hitch’ attachment.
