GBM Lube Pumps
When it comes to mud/fluid mixing, what matters most is aggressive agitation, a homogeneous blend, capacity, and powerful pump flow.
Our Bentonite and Lubrication systems are designed to fully hydrate your mixtures in less time with the pumping capacities required to enhance distances. They’re used on various projects, including guided boring, microtunneling, tunneling operations, conventional auger boring, HDD, and any application involving high viscosity heavy fluid mixing.
Safety and reliability are at the forefront with each design with features like a shrouded agitator, no belts, step‐up access to the tank, a mud supply platform, an in‐line suction strainer, and tank. A simple control panel and an in‐shaft control pendant complete the package.
FEATURES:
- Pump water or water with mud for fluid mixing.
- Aggressive in‑tank agitator maintains a homogeneous mixture with continuous, independent, or combined agitate‑and‑pump modes.
- Hydraulically driven, high pressure with relief valve.
- Pressure is adjusted to match tooling requirements.
- In‑shaft control pendant allows operators to vary flow and pressure as needed.
- Sized to provide enough supply for the duration of the shift.
- Easy connection to mud/fluid supply.

Testimonials
Super Excavators, Inc. has enjoyed a long partnership with Akkerman over the years. We originally bought a competitor’s microtunnel system and had nothing but problems with quality and service. Finally we called Akkerman and bought their SL36 microtunnel system. Since then we have never looked back. We have bought several other pieces of equipment from Akkerman. From GBM equipment to ABIS to several microtunnel cutting heads. They have been great working with our staff to customize the equipment for our specific needs. We have put their equipment to the test on several projects by pushing the envelope in long drive distances and very difficult ground conditions. The equipment has responded well and together we have made modifications to continue to improve on efficiency. In our business it is necessary to have people their when you need them. Akkerman has done a great job at supplying quality equipment and servicing our needs in a timely matter, helping keep our work on schedule.
