B-114
Bentonite Mixing System

The B -114 by American Augers is a bentonite mixing system that was specifically designed for the auger boring contractor. The standard unit is equipped with a low pressure diaphragm pump that delivers mixes at 14 Gallons (52.99 L)/per minute @ 200 PSI (14 bar), 515 RPM. Uses the bentonite to modify sticky soils into more manageable ground conditions

 

 

Standard Features

  • 8 HP (5.97 kW) Gasoline Engine
  • 114 Gallon (431.49 L) Tank

Additional Features

  • The B-114 pump will reliably deliver the bentonite slurry to the lead casing under pressure to reduce friction and will produce a 5% gel concentration in 114 gallons of water, with use of one 50 lbs. (22.68 kg) bag of bentonite, but if soil conditions are very porous (mostly gravel etc.) a thicker gel may be used.
  • The machine can also be employed, as a pressure washer during clean up time, or for pressure-testing water lines

Additional Benefits

  • Lubricates and supports the pipe while penetrating the soil
  • Assures better grade

  • Retards sloughing and cave-ins
  • Extends equipment life
  • Speeds up jacking operation
