RDO 302 ES / RDO 302 ES MW*
VEGETABLE OIL BASED ENVIRONMENTALLY SAFE
ROCK DRILL OIL
THAT ADDS TO YOUR
PROFITS
RDO 302 ES is a unique product developed for all types of drilling where rock drill oils
are used, such as D.T.H., air tracks percussive drills, casing drivers and top hammers.
RDO 302 ES reduces the potential of environmental damage during mining production,
mineral exploration, construction and quarrying.
RDO 302 ES has proprietary lubricating compounds that are not washed off by water or
Grilling additives. Rust does not develop on internal parts when the hammer is not used.
ROO 302 ES has a special filming additive that prevents piston scuffing and heat build
up. Purchase of internal hammer parts is reduced dramatically.
RDO 302 ES prevents spline wear on bits.
RDO 302 ES reduces oil consumption.
RDO 302 ES SOLUBLE reduces oi] misting underground.
RDO 302 ES MW is particularly suitable for drilling uncontaminated WATER WELLS AND
MONITOR WELLS.

Application: Replaces present Rock Drill Oils for use in pneumatic and
percussive drilling. Eg. downhole hammers, pneumatic mining drills, (Jumbo's
and Stopers), air tracks, hydraulic percussive drills , etc.
Purpose: Provides an environmentally safe product that lubricates more
effectively than conventional Rock Drill Oils while reducing contamination of
surface and groundwaters. Particularly suited for drilling in sensitive areas such
as adjacent to streams and lakes, or where groundwater protection is important.
SPECIFIC USES AND ADVANTAGES
Water Wells:
RDO 302 ES provides a more effective way of lubricating D.T.H,’s and avoids
contaminating the waterwell or the groundwater. Drillers should have no trouble
accepting product, particularly with consumer's heightened awareness of
environmental issues.
Monitor Wells:
The use of conventional Rock Drill Cils is not allowed in this application because
of the introduction of hydrocarbons into the groundwater where sampling is to
take place. Such substitutes as Crisco, ete. do not offer lubricating
characteristics. RDO 302 ES is not only free of any petroleum hydrocarbons,
priority pollutants, etc., but itis also an effective lubricant, RDO 302 ES has been
approved on a number of occasions for this purpose by both engineering
companies and government agencies. This is on a project by project approval
based on the data presented. Not using lubricants while drilling Monitor Wells
shortens the life of the hammer and also introduces metallic contamination (eg.
lead) to the groundwater as the hammer and bit wear down.
Oil and Gas Wells:
A.common practice in certain areas of the Eastern U.S. is drilling with a D.T.H...
‘The deeper the drilling the less the conventional cil gets to the hammer. Our
experience in this area has been with drilling 10,000 - 12,000" holes using 18”
hammers and 22" bits. RDO 302 ES proved to be much more effective than the
conventional oil in saving hammers and pistons. Better performance combined
with the fact that the amount of mineral oils allowed in the sump is being
restricted make RDO 302 ES a natural. If they are water misting then Bio Cut
Plus would also be applicable.
