New Bon Pro Plus Poly Mortar Tub designed for forklift use

Words: Paula WightBon’s Pro Plus™ line has been expanded to include a new Poly Mortar Tub. The unique design of the 8.5 cubic foot tub incorporates three molded-in legs on the bottom side for use with a forklift. The molded legs are on the exterior of the body only; there are no internal pockets where mortar can lodge.

The pro-grade tub is manufactured from a medium density polyethylene which is UV stabilized for added durability and longer life. The interior of this Bon mortar tub features a unique, twin-formed, non-stick surface which makes clean up fast. Rolled edges on the top of the tub add extra strength to the product.

Bon’s Pro Plus line of mortar boxes includes multiple sizes of steel and ploy models ranging from 3 cubic foot to 15 cubic foot. Specify Bon part # 21-266 for more information on the new Forklift Tub.
