Mixer rotor stator pumps like a worm pump or mortar pump are great for the construction industry because they let you take a dry compound, add water to it, and create mixture that will remain in a paste-like or semi-fluid format until it dries and hardens. Consistency will depend on the product, but plaster pumps, stucco pumps and grout pumps all can help you with easier product application.

Some pumps, stucco pumps in particular, often have a nozzle that also let you spray the compound created directly onto your surface. This direct application allows for less mess and easier clean-up.

To make the most of your search for worm pumps and other mixer rotor stator pumps:

1. Start by looking for worm pumps.

2. Then check out your grout pump options.

3. Move on to a powerful stucco pump.

I recommend: Look to Pump Haus for your concrete, shotcrete, stucco, grout, fireproofing and plaster pump needs. There you can also find conveyors and mixers as well as line systems and spray nozzles. Check out the selection of grout pumps from ChemGrout. You can search by type, model or specification.

Go for a powerful stucco pump

Choose a stucco pump with a powerful spray. Also consider stucco pumps with large hoppers to hold bigger quantities of mix.

I recommend: Take a look at the HZ 30G stucco pump from Hy-Flex. The HZ 30G's 60 gallon hopper will hold two bags of fireproofing mix or three bags of stucco mix. Consider purchasing the Sto All Purpose Stucco Pump. This pump can spray 27 cu ft / hr for distances as far as 210 feet.

Tips & Tactics

Helpful advice for making the most of this Guide

• •  Simplify your plaster pumps, mortar pumps, stucco pump, etc. application by seeing if the manufacturer of your pump also brands their own plaster, mortar or stucco. The combination of tested machinery and product will give you best results. Your second best option is to specifically ask them which brands work best with their machines and/or which to avoid with your new machinery.
