Heritage American iron — splash-lubricated two-stage pumps built to outlast the compressor they replace.
Built tough since 1915.
Saylor-Beall has manufactured two-stage air compressor pumps in St. Johns, Michigan since 1915.
For over a century, the company has remained focused on a single discipline: cast-iron reciprocating pump technology built for continuous industrial duty. That singular focus means the manufacturing knowledge, tooling, and metallurgy are dialed in to a level that generalist compressor brands rarely match on the pump itself. Every pump leaves the St. Johns facility with its cylinders, blocks, crankshafts, and connecting rods machined in-house. That vertical integration keeps tolerances tight and lead times shorter than industry averages — and it means replacement parts are made to the same spec as the original, not sourced from a contract caster. The result is a pump that shops and service techs trust as a drop-in replacement when the original pump in a Quincy, Ingersoll, or Curtis compressor wears out. Saylor-Beall offers splash-lubricated and pressure-lubricated two-stage pumps in inline and V-type configurations, with the UL centrifugal-unloader series integrating starting protection directly into the pump rather than relying on external components. Made in the USA, sourced through SPC's distribution network.
Saylor Beall pumps are sourced through SPC's distribution network, with SPC as the front-end contact for sizing, quoting, and order management — one call covers the spec, the lead time, and the paperwork.
SPC matches pump series to existing tank and motor configurations, so a replacement order arrives ready to mount rather than requiring field adaptation.
Through the distribution network, SPC aggregates demand across members to support availability on heritage pump lines like Saylor Beall that smaller distributors may not stock consistently.
General Manufacturing → Replacement and OEM pumps for two-stage continuous-duty plant-air compressors.
Automotive Manufacturing → High-cycle replacement pumps for shop compressors in body, paint, and assembly operations.
Metalworking & Fabrication → Splash- and pressure-lubricated pumps for machine shop and fabrication duty.
Construction & Infrastructure → Rugged two-stage pumps for heavy-duty contractor and infrastructure compressed-air applications.
Woodworking & Furniture → Reliable replacement pumps for finishing and production shop compressors.
Mining & Heavy Equipment → Continuous-duty cast-iron pump construction suited to demanding mine-shop environments. Splash-lubricated (703/705/707 series) covers most replacement and OEM applications up to standard continuous duty. Pressure-lubricated models are specified for higher-RPM, higher-duty-cycle installations where splash oil delivery is marginal.
Inline two-cylinder pumps fit the physical envelope of most single-stage replacements and lower-HP compressors. V-type four-cylinder pumps match larger tanks and higher-HP motors where balance and airflow favor the V-configuration.
Specify the UL centrifugal-unloader series when replacing a pump where the existing unloader has failed or is being simplified out. Standard series pumps pair with external pressure-switch and unloader valve configurations.
Match the 703/705/707/4500 series to the HP rating and flange/flywheel geometry of the existing pump. SPC can cross-reference the existing pump model to the Saylor-Beall equivalent — call with the original pump model number before ordering.
