Primrose Tube Grease

  • Armor Plate Construction & Industrial grade grease is entirely unique due to the fact that the moly in it is a compound which provides superior performance to other greases containing the black form of moly (molybdenum disulfide)
  • This grease is especially recommended for heavy duty applications in construction and mining equipment in temperatures or operating conditions above freezing
  • For temperatures below freezing or extremely cold temperatures 327 Armor Plate with Moly-D in No. 2 and No. 1 grades is recommended

Drilling Oils

Hydraulic Fluid

RDO 302 ES (Soluble)

Hydraulic Fluid

Greenplus Hydraulic Fluid has high performance lubrication properties which result in significantly less wear on your equipment’s hydraulic components.


Greenplus Hydraulic Fluid is not just rapidly biodegradable and operator-safe and made from renewable resources, but it is also environmentally safe. When an accidental spill occurs, the risk to the environment is reduced, risk of liability is minimized and negative media coverage can be avoided.


Greenplus Hydraulic Fluid base stock is made from vegetable oils with a very high natural viscosity index.

RDO 302 ES

RDO 302 ES (Soluble)

Hydraulic Fluid

RDO 302 ES is a unique product developed for all types of drilling where rock drill oils are used, such as DTH, air tracks, percussion drills, casing drivers, and top hammers to save wear and improve their performance.


RDO 302 ES reduces the potential of surface or groundwater environmental damage during mining production, mineral exploration, construction of roads and pipelines, quarrying, water well drilling, and oil and gas exploration.


RDO 302 ES has proprietary lubricating compounds that are not washed off by moisture, thus offering protection when drilling with water. Rust does not develop on internal parts when the hammer is not used.

HDD Fluids

Information on HDD Fluids by MATEX


How to mix Matex products and in which order for best results.


Clay Break HDD

Gravel Stop HDD

Gravel Stop HDD

Drilling Fluid Thinner

Clay Break drilling fluids thinner is an environmentally safe, synthetic organic liquid polymer which lowers mud viscosity and gel strengths of all conventional water based drilling muds.


Clay Break also aids in filtration control and can be used to overcome differential sticking of rods as well as treating mud rings.


Clay break best followed with Torqueless to prevent re-establishment of bit balling and mud rings.

Gravel Stop HDD

Gravel Stop HDD

Gravel Stop HDD

Gravel Stop is an environmentally safe, very high molecular weight, powdered viscosifier that can be used in either fresh or brine water. It is used consistently in HDD drilling.


Gravel Stop is effective in drilling conditions where groundwater temperatures exceed 150°F.


Gravel Stop is the preferred mix in winter conditions (powder).


Gravel Stop reduces DTH Torque due to its excellent holding power.

Hole Coat HDD

Gravel Stop HDD

Hole Coat HDD

Hole Coat is used to coat your bore hole.


Hole Coat is a highly concentrated product that rapidly develops into a very high viscosity fluid when mixed with water.


Hole Coat provides viscosity yields 40-50% greater than conventional liquid polymers, and can be used in fresh or brine water.


Hole Coat is an excellent inhibitor against shales, clays, fractured zones, sand and blocky formations, and contaminants.

One Shot HDD

One Shot HDD

Hole Coat HDD

One Shot is an all dry powder polymer with triple action to cover most drilling problems.  This product is specially formulated to respond to clay, sand and unconsolidated geological formations.  This product increases viscosity and imparts excellent stabilization and fluid loss properties.


One Shot increases the meters drilled per shift.


One Shot has effectively stopped water sands from collapsing into the bore hole.


One Shot works with Torqueless and does not require a complicated multi-component mud system.

Spec Sheet

Sand Drill

One Shot HDD

Sand-Xpress

Suggested dosage:


Sand Drill should always be premixed with Torqueless. (recommended ratio: 1 part Sand Drill to 2 parts Torqueless.)


The Sand Drill premix is then introduced in the mixing system with water.


1-3 liters Sand Drill per 1000 liters of water


1-3 quarts Sand Drill per 250 gallons of water.
