P-GEL / P-GEL SP 10 / P-GEL SP 15 / P-GEL SP 20
Key Advantages in Construction:
- Excavation Support and Borehole Stability: P-GEL forms a dense slurry that applies hydrostatic pressure to borehole walls, preventing collapse and ensuring borehole stability throughout the excavation process.
- Suspension of Cuttings: P-GEL's ability to suspend soil cuttings ensures that the borehole remains clean, allowing for efficient pile installation without blockages or interruptions.
- Friction Reduction: Acting as a lubricant, P-GEL significantly reduces friction between drilling tools and the surrounding soil.
- Fluid Loss Control and Water Sealing: P-GEL effectively controls fluid loss by forming a low-permeability filter cake on the borehole walls.
- High Swelling Capacity: P-GEL expands rapidly when mixed with water, creating a gel-like structure that provides excellent sealing and fluid loss control, ideal for trenchless projects and tunneling operations.
- Superior Lubrication: The slurry formed by P-GEL significantly reduces friction between the pipe and surrounding soil during pipe jacking and microtunneling, ensuring smooth and efficient installations.
- Stability in Varied Soil Conditions: Whether in sandy, clayey, or rocky terrains, P-GEL stabilizes the soil matrix, preventing collapses and ensuring safe, controlled excavation processes.
- Efficient Grouting & Slurry Formation: P-GEL’s ability to form stable, homogeneous slurries makes it the perfect solution for grouting applications, reducing water penetration and improving the structural integrity of the tunnel or trench.
