Cement Wedge

CWs are a highly effective bridge plug for spot cementing sections of drill holes or wedging in off bottom situations for branch hole operations.

Cementing and Wedging Bottom Packer

TCWBPs are used for bridging a drill hole, spot cementing or wedging operations similar to the CW PLUG yet where the drill hole is making water and two way seal is required.

Sub Set Cementing and Wedging Bottom

The CWBPs are designed for use in the same situations as the CWBP but where the packer cannot be pumped down the rod string, for example where non wire line, mismatching rod and hole sizes or internally upset rods are being used.

Pressure Grouting Top Packer

PGTPs, formally our CWTP and now redesigned, is used to pressure grout through rods, the packer and into the hole. The PGTP has a non-return valve and can be used on its own in blind holes for unstable ground formations, fault zones and permeability testing.

Sub Set Grout Packer

SSGPs have many applications for both surface and underground use. Designed for pressure grouting drill holes at any angle including overhead, the SSGP is also used together with CWBP to pressure grout specific fault zones, fortify unstable formations and to facilitate permeability testing. The SSGP has also been useful in drill string withdrawal.

Grouting and Water Control Packer

The GWC is designed for use mainly in underground drill holes yet it may also be used at the surface. The GWC is designed for grouting or controlled dewatering.

Hold Down Plug

The HD is used where higher pressures are expected in the drill hole below a CWBP or CWTP location or where up hole suction or slippage is of concern.

Hold Up Plug

The HUP has applications for both surface and underground use and is designed to increase safety in the case of high flow water or tooling exiting the drill rod. The plug is particularly effective as a safety feature when working on an up hole in an underground environment.

Anchor Plug

The AP is designed to enable grouting of overhead drill holes by anchoring a PVC hose up hole to evacuate air from blind holes in impervious formations.
