Hydrogel
Product #13110
For use in drilling operations where premium grade Wyoming Bentonite is desired. Hydrogel is a preferred product for use in oil and gas exploration drilling where API 13A Section 9 material is required. It is also used in slurry trenching, caisson boring, and cast-in-place concrete foundations. Hydrogel is NSF Certified to NSF/ANSI 60.
Features & Benefits
- Manufactured to exceed API 13A, Section 9 specifications
- 200 mesh viscosity builder
- Yields excellent fluid loss characteristics
- Assists in stabilizing the borehole or trench walls
Application
Mix 20 to 50 pounds per 100 gallons of make-up water. This product is designed to be flushed out of the wellbore prior to using the well for drinking water. Before placing a well in service for drinking water it is to be properly flushed and drained until the turbidity of the water is <1 NTU above ambient turbidity.
