Sand Spears
Sand Spear points are a type of bore used in shallow – reaching no more than 6 meters in depth – generally unconfined aquifers.
Shallow installations are usually used for delivering low quantities of water for watering a garden for example.
Sand Spears come in both stainless steel V-wire or PVC. The design of the Stainless steel V- wire has some definite advantages over the PVC type for example:
- V-wires have a non-clogging surface
- They can cover a large open area
- Have a low pressure drop
- Are Hydraulic efficient
- They have high flow rates
- V-wire has mechanical strength
- It’s easy to clean
- It has a close slot tolerance
- Has a lower entrance velocity
- And they are used for better well development
For low-yield requirements a PVC sand spear may do the trick. It’s less expensive, non-corrosive, light weight and can easily be manufactured to suit your specific requirements.
