Updated: October 21, 2024

Product Description

Packaged Detonator-Sensitive Emulsion for Reactive Ground. Innopak RG is a wax-based, perchlorate- free emulsion that is solid sensitized for an increased level of resistance to excess shock from adjacent blast holes. It is designed for use in surface and underground applications where reactive ground conditions are present.

Application

The water-resistant characteristics of the Innopak RG make it suitable for use in small-diameter wet holes.
