Small-Line Concrete Trailer Pump Buyer's Guide
On the typical concrete pour, your goal is to place the concrete as close as possible to its final destination—not only to save hauling time and boost productivity, but also to avoid overhandling of the concrete. But on many decorative concrete jobs, the ready-mix truck can't gain access to the work site. When you're placing a stamped concrete patio in a fenced backyard or a decorative floor inside in an enclosed building, you must find another way to move the concrete from the truck to the point of placement. For conveying concrete to restricted sites such as these, a trailer-mounted small-line pump is often the ideal solution. Not only are these compact pumps convenient for small residential pours, they can also serve as an alternative to high-volume boom pumps on large decorative pours that require slower output rates, such as intricate stamped concrete projects. Most models can reach hundreds of feet and offer placement rates ranging anywhere from 5 to over 100 cubic yards per hour. In today's construction equipment marketplace, you can find a trailer-mounted pump for almost any application, from pressure grouting and shotcreting to placing cement-based overlays and structural concrete.
