The innovative riser pipe for water wells; Sure-Loc.

Sure-Loc riser pipe is used for installation of submersible pumps in water wells. It utilises an innovative pipe work mating arrangement. This makes the installation of borehole pumps much simpler, with less effort for the drilling contractor installing borehole pumps. No more pulling and pushing on the pipe wrenches.

A uPVC pipe, with a unique external rib feature, locks the mating socket with guide ways to the external ribs on the riser pipe using nylon splines. This unique system of the ribs extruded pipe takes care of the torsion forces, which occur during pump start up and stopping.

When combining the double spline with the key-way coupling it over comes the need for grease on conventional metal pipe, the repeated effort to tighten the pipe, fiddly torque control screws of other products and the subsequent requirement to torque in the screws. This saves time when installing pumps.

To disassemble you simply have to remove the splines to undo the joint.

The product is designed and manufactured to conform or exceed the performance requirements of ASTM specification D1785 schedule 80.

The initial cost of the Sure-Loc riser pipe combined with a long life (it will not rust) makes it first choice for installation of submersible pump installations within water abstraction wells.

The system is popular for temporary pump installations for clearance pumping, test pumping of water wells and for temporary dewatering systems on construction sites.

The pipe work covers the range from 1 1/2” up to 6” and is economical compared to conventional metal riser pipes and heavy duty layflat hose currently in the market.
