Introduction to Concrete Pumping Applications
Modern construction requires versatile equipment capable of handling multiple material types. The ability to pump 3/4 inch concrete and pump 3/8 inch shotcrete efficiently is essential for structural, residential, and industrial projects. The RD6536 Skid Steer Pump is a hydraulic concrete pump attachment designed to handle both material types with consistent performance and reliability.
Built for demanding job site conditions, the RD6536 delivers smooth pumping performance while maintaining low maintenance requirements and high durability.
RD6536 Skid Steer Pump Overview
The RD6536 Skid Steer Pump transforms a standard skid steer loader into a powerful concrete pumping machine. Its universal mounting plate allows quick installation, making it ideal for contractors who need mobility and fast setup across multiple job sites.
This system is engineered to handle a wide range of concrete pumping tasks, including both coarse aggregate concrete and fine shotcrete applications.
Ability to Pump 3/4 Inch Concrete
One of the key strengths of the RD6536 is its ability to pump 3/4 inch concrete mixes, making it suitable for structural and heavy-duty construction applications.
This includes:
Structural foundations
Reinforced concrete slabs
Heavy-duty retaining walls
Industrial flooring
Infrastructure projects
The powerful 3-inch squeeze pump ensures smooth flow even with larger aggregate mixes.
Ability to Pump 3/8 Inch Shotcrete
The RD6536 is also highly effective when used to pump 3/8 inch shotcrete, making it ideal for precision applications such as surface coating and structural reinforcement.
Common shotcrete applications include:
Tunnel lining
Slope stabilization
Retaining wall repair
Swimming pool construction
Structural rehabilitation
The adjustable flow system ensures precise application and consistent spray performance.
Hydraulic Squeeze Pump Performance
At the core of the RD6536 is a 3-inch hydraulic squeeze pump that delivers variable output from 0 to 25 cubic yards per hour. This allows operators to match pumping speed to material type and job requirements.
The squeeze pump system compresses a flexible rubber tube to move material forward, ensuring smooth and continuous flow without direct contact between concrete and mechanical components.
Key Features of RD6536 Skid Steer Pump
The RD6536 includes several features designed for versatility and performance:
3-inch hydraulic squeeze pump system
Variable output from 0–25 cubic yards per hour
Universal skid steer mounting plate
Manual hydraulic controls for precision operation
Hydraulic remixer in the receiving hopper
Capability to pump 3/4 inch aggregate concrete
Capability to pump 3/8 inch shotcrete
Forklift pick-up design for easy transport
Heavy-duty construction for demanding job sites
These features make it suitable for both coarse and fine concrete applications.
Low Maintenance and High Durability
One of the major advantages of the RD6536 is its simple maintenance system. The primary wear component is the 3-inch rubber pumping tube, which can be replaced in approximately 20 minutes in the field.
Since concrete does not contact internal moving parts, wear is minimized, resulting in reduced downtime, lower maintenance costs, and longer equipment lifespan.
