Choosing the right concrete pump with variable speed can help construction contractors manage material delivery across different applications, including concrete placement, floor leveling, mud jacking, grout pumping, and shotcrete. Adjustable pumping output allows operators to match the delivery rate to job-site requirements and the characteristics of the material being pumped.
The Blastcrete RD 6536 Squeeze Hose Pump is designed for contractors who need versatile concrete pumping equipment with adjustable output. Featuring a 3-inch hydraulic squeeze pump with a pumping capacity ranging from 0 to 25 cubic yards per hour, the RD 6536 is designed to handle concrete containing aggregates up to 3/4 inch, concrete block fill (grout), shotcrete, floor leveling cement, mud jacking mixtures, and cellular concrete.
With a 1,000-pound-capacity receiving hopper, hydraulic agitator, and trailer-mounted configuration, the RD 6536 offers practical features for a range of suitable construction and concrete repair projects.
RD 6536 Concrete Pump with Variable Speed Overview
The RD 6536 is a hydraulic squeeze hose concrete pump designed to deliver compatible concrete and cementitious materials at an adjustable pumping rate.
Its variable-speed system offers an output range of 0 to 25 cubic yards per hour, allowing operators to regulate material delivery according to the application and operating conditions. This flexibility is useful for projects that require different placement rates rather than a single fixed output.
The machine is equipped with a 3-inch pump discharge and a receiving hopper with a capacity of 1,000 pounds. The hopper includes a hydraulic agitator, splash guard, and cover to support material handling during operation.
Mounted on a single-axle, high-speed towing trailer with electric brakes and braking lights, the RD 6536 is designed to be transported between suitable job sites.

Benefits of Variable-Speed Concrete Pumping
Variable-speed pumping gives operators greater flexibility when managing material delivery for different construction tasks.
1. Adjustable Material Delivery
Different applications require different pumping rates. The RD 6536 allows the operator to adjust the output within its stated operating range, helping match delivery to project requirements and placement conditions.
2. Greater Application Flexibility
The RD 6536 is designed for multiple compatible materials and applications, including floor leveling cement, mud jacking mixtures, grout, shotcrete, cellular concrete, and concrete containing aggregates up to 3/4 inch.
3. Controlled Pumping Operations
The machine's manual hydraulic controls provide forward, neutral, and reverse functions, together with flow control and a hydraulic gauge. These controls allow operators to manage the pumping process according to the equipment's operating instructions.
4. Support for Different Job-Site Requirements
Variable-speed operation can be useful when moving between projects with different placement requirements. The appropriate pumping rate will depend on material characteristics, delivery distance, and site conditions.
5. Flexible Equipment Configuration
With diesel and gasoline engine options, plus optional pendant and wireless remote controls, contractors can discuss different configurations with their equipment supplier.
Applications of the RD 6536 Squeeze Hose Pump
The RD 6536 is designed for a variety of construction and concrete repair applications.
Concrete Floor Leveling
The pump is designed to handle compatible floor-leveling cement mixtures. Its adjustable output can help operators manage material delivery for suitable residential, commercial, and industrial flooring projects.
Mud Jacking and Concrete Slab Stabilization
Mud jacking involves pumping a suitable grout mixture beneath settled concrete slabs to support lifting or stabilization. The RD 6536 is designed for this application when the material and operating conditions are compatible with the machine.
Grout Pumping and Concrete Block Filling
The RD 6536 can pump compatible grout and concrete block fill mixtures used in suitable masonry and construction projects.
Shotcrete Placement
The machine is designed to pump compatible shotcrete mixtures. Contractors should confirm the mix formulation and required delivery setup before selecting the equipment.
Cellular Concrete Pumping
The RD 6536 is also designed for cellular concrete applications when the material's density, consistency, and flow characteristics are appropriate for the pump.
Concrete with 3/4-Inch Aggregate
The machine is designed to pump concrete containing aggregates up to 3/4 inch. The concrete mixture, aggregate grading, hose arrangement, and pumping distance should be checked for compatibility before operation.
