PRODUCT DATA SHEET

High performance lubricating foam

 

Features and Benefits

TOOL-TEKTOR FOAM is a face injection additive with MANY BENEFITS for mechanised tunnelling:

1:Lubrication for All Tunnelling Methods

TOOL-TEKTOR FOAM is specially designed for use in intermittent or continuous abrasive conditions. The biodegradable, extreme pressure lubricants in the TOOL-TEKTOR FOAM formulation maintain production in open and closed systems by:

Bonding positively to the cutter faces

Creating effective “boundary layer” lubrication

Reducing tool wear

Reducing torque

2:EPB Foam Effect

TOOL-TEKTOR FOAM helps to improve production and promote good EPB control by:

Reducing or preventing clay clogging of TBM cutter head assemblies.

Increasing shear effect in the mining operation.

Promoting good flow properties in difficult spoil s.

Promoting true EPB support by converting the clay and silt into a pressure regulating and transmitting medium.

Minimising water consumption and dumping cost

3:Economy

The high coverage and penetration, combined with the low consumption rate, make TOOL-TEKTOR FOAM much more economical in use than liqid lubricants.

4:Ideal for Mixed and Alternating Ground

By using TOOL-TEKTOR FOAM you are prepared for sudden changes in ground condition. In silts, clays, mudstones etc, muck transit is rapid and smooth. In abrasive sands and rock, good lubrication is maintained.

5:Dust suppression

An added bonus of using TOOL-TEKTOR FOAM is that it can reduce or eliminate nuisance dust in rock mining.

1 to 5% in water or foam solution. (Contact Morrison Mud for detailed advice on using this product in your TBM. If it is not fitted with foam generating and additive dosing equipment, or you need to upgrade, we can supply and install these at low cost.)
