ANNULAR SEALS

Bentonite Sleeves

Bentonite sleeves make it easy to install an impermeable annular seal in one pass. Most wells can then be topped up with grout the same day.

                                         Threaded into the casing string to provide positive placement of an                                          impermeable annular seal below the water table. (Note: Bentonite                                         Sleeves seal at a much slower rate than Quick Seal.) 1/2" and 3/4" models fit inside most 2" and 2-1/8" direct push casing, and when fully hydrated will seal holes up to 2.8". The 2" model fits in 3" and larger holes, and seals up to 3-3/4". 30" long units stack for longer seals.
