Description
Product Information:
Bentonite is used as a backfill to reduce soil resistivity. When mixed with water, it swells to several times its dry volume. This moisture content can be retained for a considerable time and further moisture can be absorbed during rainfall etc. Bentonite can be supplied in either powder or granular form.
Approximately 18 x 25kg bags create a volume of 1m³ (depending on soil and excavation conditions).
Features:
Material: Activated sodium montmorillonite clay. The product is a naturally occurring substance with no known ecological hazards, and can be disposed of as non hazardous waste.
More Information:
Powder: Powder is the preferred product for pouring into bore holes, ensuring the mixture is of a thin enough consistency to reach the bottom of the bore hole.
For installing lightning earthing system applications, We recommend the use of Copper earth electrode systems due to their inherent low resistivity and corrosion resistance.
Materials used in earthing systems must be able to:
-
withstand mechanical damage,
-
resist corrosion,
-
provide a low impedance path to earth,
-
and carry the maximum fault condition for the application/installation.
