ANNULAR SEALS
Instantly-expanding foam bridge provides barrier for bentonite to prevent solids from entering the screened interval. Allows rapid grouting to save time in the field.
This compressible foam seal, wrapped in a polyethylene sleeve,expands instantly when it exits the bottom of the drive casing, to provide positive placement of a barrier that prevents solids from entering into the screen interval. Provides a positive grout barrier when used above the water table with granular bentonite.
SPECIFICATIONS
Materials: Polyurethane foam,
polyethylene sleeve on 6" of flush
threaded PVC pipe.

Expanding Foam Bridge
Quick Seal Sleeve
GeoInsight Quick Seal Sleeves are the fastest
way to install a low- permeability annular seal below the waterline. Grouting can
begin almost immediately.
Threads into the casing string to provide positive placement of a fast, low-permeability annular seal below the water table. 1/2" and 3/4" models fit in most 2" and 2-1/8" casing, and when fully hydrated will seal holes up to 2.8". The 1-1/4" and 2" models fit in 3" and larger holes and seal up to 3-3/4". 30" long units stack for longer seals.
