Anti-Static ANFO Loading Hose

A specially formulated anti-static PVC tubing for the loading of ammonium nitrate/fuel oil blasting agents used in the mining and construction industries.

Construction:

Specially-formulated anti static PVC compound.

Features:

• Conductivity – effectively limits build-up of static electricity;
  provides path for its safe dissipation to ground.
• Bleeds off static charges built up during pneumatic loading of Ammonium Nitrate/Fuel Oil mixtures.
• Sufficient resistance – guards blasting circuit against stray electrical currents.
• Wear resistance – smooth interior and exterior surfaces, combined with tough material formulation, provide good wear resistance.
• Self-extinguishing characteristics.
• Excellent flexibility – sufficiently flexible to handle easily, yet rigid enough to reach upwards into collars of steeply-inclined holes.
• Easily identifiable – co-extruded continuous orange stripe makes tubing visible in underground lighting.
• Embossed branding – provides lasting identification.
• Packaged for ease of handling and shipping.

Applications:

• Bulk unloading of ammonium nitrate/fuel oil blasting agents in small diameter holes.
• Successfully used for years with Orica’s blast hole chargers, intermediate loaders and the Penberthy Anoloader.
• Mining and construction site blasting.
