Product Description
A specially formulated anti-static PVC tubing for the loading of ammonium nitrate/fuel oil blasting agents used in the mining and construction industries.
Note: A new coil of tubing can have its pliancy restored by the application of heat before it is placed in service underground. This will facilitate handling and its attachment to pneumatic loading equipment. Steam or very hot water passed through the coiled tubing will remove the "set" from the new tubing and allow it to be straightened easily. The tubing should then be left to cool in the straight position.
Construction:
Specially-formulated anti-static PVC compound.
Features:
• Conductivity - effectively limits build-up of static electricity; provides
path for its safe dissipation to ground.
• Bleeds off static charges built up during pneumatic loading of Ammonium
Nitrate/Fuel Oil mixtures.
• Sufficient resistance - guards blasting circuit against stray electrical
currents.
• Wear resistance - smooth interior and exterior surfaces, combined with
tough material formulation, provide good wear resistance.
• Self-extinguishing characteristics.
• Excellent flexibility - sufficiently flexible to handle easily, yet
rigid enough to reach upwards into collars of steeply-inclined holes.
• Easily identifiable - co-extruded continuous orange stripe makes tubing
visible in underground lighting.
• Embossed branding - provides lasting identification.
• Packaged for ease of handling and shipping.
Applications:
• Bulk unloading of ammonium nitrate/fuel oil blasting agents in small
diameter holes.
• Successfully used for years with Orica’s blast hole chargers,
intermediate loaders and the Penberthy Anoloader.
• Mining and construction site blasting.
Temperature Range: -30 to 150 ºF
