AUS-PLUG is a hydrophilic polymer in granular form that absorbs up to 500 times its original volume in water. AUS-PLUG is ideal for sealing zones of lost circulation and can also be used to reduce rod vibration in holes where lost returns are a problem.
AUS-PLUG should be partially pre-hydrated in fresh water or the drilling fluid before being pumped down into the cavity or when spotted across the thief zone. The mixture will swell rapidly to help seal and plug fissures, cracks and porous formations.
