Honey Extractor 4/8 frames LEGROC®

When you start beekeeping, you often use extractors that bring more trouble than joy: they wobble, rust, or leave half the honey stuck at the bottom. But there comes a time when you realize that a good extractor isn’t a luxury — it’s an investment. And that’s where the Legroc 4/8 Frame Manual Tangential Extractor truly shines.

Entirely made of food-grade stainless steel 304 with a thickness of 0.8 mm, this extractor is built to last a lifetime. Not just the tank: the basket, honey gate, gears, and crank handle are all stainless steel too, ensuring perfect hygiene and outstanding durability. Forget about rust spots or metallic flavors — your honey stays pure and natural.

The conical, domed bottom is one of those smart details that make a difference. It allows honey to flow naturally towards the gate without tilting the extractor or wasting a single drop. Every kilo counts, and this design respects that.

The tangential system ensures gentle extraction. The honey is spun from one side at a time while the frame is fully supported, preventing wax damage even with dense honeys like heather or eucalyptus. Your combs remain almost intact, ready to return to the hive.

Its versatility allows you to load 4 brood frames (Langstroth, Layens, or Dadant) or 8 half-frames, making it ideal for beekeepers who work with different hive types.

The transparent polycarbonate lid is impact-resistant and doesn’t yellow over time. The magnetic closure system makes it easy to open and close, and the powder-coated steel legs ensure full stability while cranking.

It also includes a mechanical braking system: by turning the handle in the opposite direction of rotation, the mechanism works as a brake, gradually stopping the drum without jolts.

In short, the Legroc Manual Tangential Extractor is an investment in durability, efficiency, and honey quality. Reliable, simple, and robust — built for beekeepers who demand lasting performance.
