Nozzle for a daylighter? |

Nozzle for a daylighter? I have no idea what a daylighter is, but this is not one. |

Does it screw into the end of a drill stem? You are very hot! Yes! |

Is it a kind of regulator? |

If you push on the end, does it click on or off? LOL... I am glad you gave THAT hint. I thought the threads on the front end looked akin to something like a tire valve core tool. "Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once." |

Nozzle for a daylighter? I think you Yanks call them hydrovacs. High pressure water into a hole, mud gets vacuumed out, so you can dig up a buried wire or pipe without breaking it. |

Is it a kind of regulator? No not a regulator. |

Nozzle for a daylighter? No not for hydrovac process. |

If you push on the end, does it click on or off? Glad that helped but I found that my size estimates were off a little bit. Here is the manufactures size chart. |

Oh so very close but no. It's not pipe. Pipe is only part of a drill stem. |

Does it have any thing to do with BOP? (Blow out prevention) |

Does it have any thing to do with BOP? No that is not usally on the stem. |

Testing equipment? |
Carlos Send message Joined: 9 Jun 99 Posts: 30406 Credit: 57,275,487 RAC: 157 |
Testing equipment? Sort of. If no one comes closer by the morning I will consider giving it to you, but it's not really testing equiptment. Althought some testing equiptment needs this to work. |

The only other thing I can see so far is that it is some sort of valve. |

The only other thing I can see so far is that No. But will give another hint. It purpose is energy transmission. That should be vauge and not give it away. |

Is it for pushing grout through the drill stem into a void or soft material (sand, mud, ...) so that the stem will be supported for drilling into harder rock later? BOINC WIKI |

Is it for pushing grout through the drill stem into a void or soft material (sand, mud, ...) so that the stem will be supported for drilling into harder rock later? No. See my last few hint. It transmits energy not mud. Some testing equiptment relies on it. Last hint Seit uses the worlds largest one. |

Is it used to thump the inside of the bore, so seismometers can read the rock structures? BOINC WIKI |
