Well materials are available in uPVC, HDPE and Steel.

PVC liners are available from a nominal diameter of 19mm up to 200mm.The well liners ND23 mm size and upwards are suitable for use in water abstraction projects and are approved under the Water Regulations Approval Scheme (WRAS), Approval Number: 2309549.

The testing procedure confirms that the well screens and casings are suitable for contact with wholesome water for domestic purposes having met the requirements ofBS6920-1:2000 and/or 2014 'Suitability of non-metallic products for use in contact with water intended for human consumption with regard to their effect on the quality of the water.

The approval is valid until September 2028

Various machined slot sizes to allow for ground conditions are available. The pipe is stocked in lengths of 1m and 3m, with each length being male/female threaded so that installations can be suited to specific site conditions, in 50mm normal diameter HDPE and uPVC, we also stock 2m section of plain and slotted.

For specification of these materials the following criteria should be stated:

"uPVC casing and wellscreens shall be supplied by an ISO9001 approved manufacturing company, the pipe shall be male/female threaded with machined slots on the wellscreen.

The slots shall be horizontal to the pipe length to prevent slot compressions.

    Wire Wrapped Wellscreen

    Using a wire wedge wellscreen has specific advantages over other steel screens and allow high flows of sand free water into the well because of:

    Wire Wrapped Wellscreen
  • A large open area
  • Close slot tolerance to control fines
  • Efficient well yielding
  • No plugging

  • Wellscreens are made in a range of stainless steels 304 or 316 and other weldable metals in a wide range of diameters and slot sizes from 0.25mm to 4mm.

    Screens and casings are manufactured to customer requirements with threaded or flange connectors, lead time is up to 10 weeks, so please enquire early.

    Bridge Slotted Wellscreen

    Bridge slot screens are formed by punching openings into a flat sheet that is subsequently rolled into a tube and welded.

    Bridge Slotted Wellscreen

    The openings are arranged in staggered rows to maintain the screen's strength.

    Advantages of this screen are high strength through resistance to twisting, compressive and tensile forces.

  • Slot sizes from 1.0mm to 4mm
  • Wall thickness 6mm or 10mm
  • Diameters from 150mm to 1000mm
  • Open area 6% to 23%

  • Available to order as not stocked
