Piling Bentonite

Bentonite has excellent thixotropic /suspension properties with low filtrate loss which makes it ideal for piling & drilling applications. Thixotropic nature of Bentonite allows slurry to penetrate deep into cleavages cracks and clogs the pores and develops good suspensions and friction agent stabilizing the excavations.

We manufacture High yield Bentonite as per Indian Standards (IS), American Petroleum Institute (API) and Oil Companies Material Association (OCMA) Standards.

Benefits

• Slurry Formation: Bentonite is mixed with water to create a stable slurry used in the construction of bored piles, ensuring stability during excavation.
• Excavation Support: The bentonite slurry exerts hydrostatic pressure, preventing collapse of the borehole walls and maintaining stability during pile installation.
• Cuttings Suspension: It aids in suspending drill cuttings, allowing them to be easily removed from the borehole, thus facilitating efficient excavation.
• Sealing Properties: Bentonite's swelling ability forms a seal around the borehole, preventing water infiltration and maintaining the integrity of the excavation.
• Lubrication: It reduces friction between the drill string and the surrounding soil, facilitating smooth penetration and extraction of the drilling equipment.
• Density Control: Bentonite helps control the density of the slurry, ensuring it has the required properties for effective pile installation.
• Packaging – 25 kg, 50 kg, 1mt Bags or customized packing as per requirement.
