Mayco Ball-Valve Concrete Pumps – Compact Power for Consistent Flow
Contractors who need reliable small-aggregate pumping turn to Mayco’s legendary ball-valve line, a family of machines that squeeze big performance out of a compact frame. Whether you’re shooting shotcrete, placing grout behind block, or topping slabs with self-leveler, a cement pump from the C-series keeps the mix moving shift after shift. Designed to tow easily behind a pickup, each unit doubles as a job-site concrete pump trailer while delivering the output and pressure you’d expect from a larger skid-mount. Because the simple ball-valve design handles lean, coarse, or low-slump material without constant priming, this cement pump excels where rotor-stator or swing-tube machines often stall.
How the Ball-Valve Advantage Saves Time
A rugged steel ball in each check valve seats firmly on a machined seat, opening and closing with every piston stroke. This self-cleaning action keeps flow paths open even when sand pockets or pea gravel hit the line—one reason a ball valve concrete pump can fire through hundreds of feet of hose without surging. By pairing that valve train with heat-treated pistons and wear pads, the Mayco system delivers years of low-maintenance service and keeps your cement pump on the slab instead of in the shop.
All three mount to a DOT-rated frame, transforming the machine into a true concrete pump trailer that can roll onto freeway jobs at a moment’s notice. A hinged hopper grate, splash-proof latching lid, and high-flow agitation paddles turn the rig into a mini concrete mixer pump, keeping low-slump batches blended until the last stroke.
Operator-Focused Controls
- Side-Mounted Panel – Toggle stroke changeover, throttle, and emergency stop without climbing over hoses.
- Digital Tach & Hour Meter – Track engine health and schedule service before downtime hits.
- Auto-Lubricator – Drips oil at each stroke to extend piston cup life, lowering the total cost of owning a cement pump.
Ideal Applications for a Ball-Valve Workhorse
- Residential Footings & Walls – Trailer the unit through tight subdivisions where a boom truck won’t fit.
- Shotcrete Repair – Attach an air ring and convert the concrete mixer pump into a cost-effective spray setup.
- Pressure Grouting & Soil Nails – Reliable 400 psi pumping tackles challenging Geotech tasks.
Because each ball valve concrete pump weighs under 4,000 lb, a single-ton pickup can tow material, hoses, and accessories in one trip—boosting daily productivity.
Why Choose a Mayco Cement Pump?
- Legendary Durability – Decades of job-site testing prove the piston-and-ball design survives extreme mixes.
- Fuel Flexibility – Gasoline EFI, carb, or diesel engines let you meet site rules without sacrificing power.
- Service Simplicity – Fewer wear parts than swing-tube competitors keep your concrete pump trailer earning, not idling.
From urban infill to remote infrastructure, Mayco’s cement pump line delivers the versatile, small-aggregate solution crews trust. Add a ball valve concrete pump to your fleet and experience how a portable concrete mixer pump turns every yard into profitable, precisely placed concrete, no boom truck required.
