Description:

TRU PRIME T200  – Concrete Pump Primer

T200 Bentonite is a premium high-yield sodium bentonite mined and processed near Miles in Queensland, Australia. Containing a high proportion of the active clay mineral montmorillonite, T200 provides excellent hydration, swelling and lubricating properties.

When used as a concrete pump primer, T200 creates a smooth, lubricating slurry that helps prepare concrete pumps and pipelines before pumping commences. This reduces friction within the pipeline, assists with concrete flow and helps minimise the risk of blockages during start-up.

Applications

• Concrete Pump Priming: Used to prime concrete pumps and delivery lines before introducing concrete.

• Pipeline Lubrication: Creates a lubricating layer inside concrete delivery pipelines to reduce friction and resistance.

• Commercial Concrete Pumping: Suitable for use in commercial, civil and residential concrete pumping operations.

• Long-Distance Pumping: Can assist with preparing extended concrete delivery lines where effective lubrication is essential.

Benefits

• Excellent Lubrication: Produces a smooth, slippery slurry that helps reduce friction between concrete and pipeline surfaces.

• High-Yield Performance: Hydrates efficiently to produce a consistent priming slurry.

• Reduced Blockage Risk: Helps minimise dry starts and initial pumping resistance when correctly mixed and applied.

• Improved Pumping Efficiency: Assists with smoother concrete flow during pump start-up.

• Easy Mixing: Can be mixed with clean water to achieve the desired priming consistency.

• Australian-Made Product: Naturally sourced and processed in Queensland.

• Cost-Effective Solution: Provides an economical alternative to conventional concrete pump priming products.
