Clay Cutter - Model Pro -Dry Clay Inhibitor
CLAY CUTTER PRO is a dry version of the CLAY CUTTER liquid additive. This concentrated, non-hazardous, proprietary clay inhibitor can be used with either polymer or bentonite drilling fluid systems. This dry additive is cost effective and dosages are easily monitored and controlled. CLAY CUTTER PRO is an ideal additive for HDD bores in reactive clay soils.
CLAY CUTTER PRO is to be used on any size HDD bore. Using CLAY CUTTER PRO will greatly reduce or eliminate clay cuttings from sticking to each other and to the drilling tools. Swelling of the bore will be reduced or eliminated. Rotation and pullback pressures will be significantly reduced.
- Greatly reduces clay rings and bit balling
- Increases returns back to the surface
- Non-hazardous
- Readily dispersible
- Reduces pullback pressures
- Reduces torque
- Will not significantly alter yield point or filtrate
Add CLAY CUTTER PRO to the drilling fluid system last. For sticky and swelling clays use 0.5 to 2 lbs per 1000 gallons (227 g to 0.9 kg per 3785 liters) depending on water sensitivity of the formation.
For maximum effectiveness, CLAY CUTTER PRO should be used starting with the pilot hole and all reaming and pullback stages. Clays begin swelling and absorbing water immediately upon contact with water starting with the pilot hole. CLAY CUTTER PRO will eliminate or greatly reduce this problem.
