The Maxx48 is our biggest, baddest, beefiest extractor yet!  Featuring our new bottom-drive design! This offers a lower center-of-gravity for better balance, as well as a clutter-free top for easier frame access and cleaning.

  • Bottom Mounted PowerMax drive system: an industrial grade motor, gearbox, and upgraded controller. This combination is smooth, quiet and durable. A great combination of simplicity and refinement, this drive system performs fabulously!
  • 18 gauge, type 304 food-grade stainless steel tank - thickest in the industry!
  • EZ-Drain Tank Floor – A HillCo-exclusive sloped tank bottom ensures your honey naturally flows toward the gate — no tipping, no wasted honey. The honey gate sits nearly flush with the tank floor, allowing a clean, complete and seamless honey drain.
  • Industry leading "10/Forever" Warranty: motor, gearbox, controller, wiring, and bearings are guaranteed for 10 years. The rest of the machine (tank, legs, reel, lids etc), are guaranteed forever! We have engineered a quality product, built with quality components, and we will stand behind it!
  • Designed and assembled in USA by HillCo! Most components manufactured in North America.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What makes HillCo products different from other beekeeping suppliers?

HillCo is a family-owned business built by beekeepers, for beekeepers. Founder John Hill started out as a hobbyist frustrated by how expensive beekeeping equipment had become, so HillCo focuses on offering high-quality, core beekeeping products at more affordable prices than competitors by buying in higher volume direct from manufacturers, limiting selection to focus on core items, and keeping operating costs low. That means real savings passed on to you, backed by friendly, personal customer service.For more info, visit our About page.
