PumpMaster PG-30 masonry grout pump

Words: Dan KamysThe PumpMaster PG-30 from AIRPLACO is a new addition to the PumpMaster line of masonry grout pumps.

The PG-30 is engineered and manufactured for masonry grouting applications, such as blockfill and mortar hoisting. The PumpMaster PG-30 is a complement to the model PG-25, which is designed for masonry wall grouting with fine grouts.

Model PG-30 features a higher output and larger aggregate capabilities. The PG-30 will pump up to 10 yards per hour, allowing contractors to cycle through a typical ready-mix truck delivery. It includes dual four-inch pumping cylinders and a swing tube material valve, for pumping coarse grouts with aggregates up to ¾-inch minus through larger diameter hoses.
