Drawings bailers for drilling wells. Drilling a well with a bailer: a complete overview of the technology of drilling with a shock-rope method. Types of valves and their differences

To eliminate accumulations of silt and sand from a water source, you can make a bailer for cleaning the well with your own hands.

Well cleaning is based on the gravitational principle.

The bailer is made of a rather heavy metal pipe and, under the influence of its weight, during a free fall, knocks down all deposits from the walls of the well.

A homemade bailer is used not only for cleaning, but also for drilling wells.

The process of cleaning the well with a bailer:

• Tie a strong rope or cable to the end of the bailer. To work with a well of great depth, use a lifting device, for example, a gate;
• Lower the bailer into the hole, it should sink under its own weight;
• After the device reaches the bottom, sharply raise the device by 50-60 cm and release it again;
• Due to the resistance of the liquid during the downward movement, the check valve opens;
• Upon impact, silt and sand rise from the bottom, the thus formed suspended mixture enters the bailer through the check valve and the well is cleaned;
• A few blows are enough to fill the bailer, after which it is evenly lifted and released without jerks;
• Repeat if necessary. Keep in mind that one such cleaning removes 0.3-0.4 kg of sand, which allows you to free up about 3 cm of the bottom (figures are indicated for a medium-sized well).

Do not forget that in order to maintain the health of the well, it is desirable to carry out water intake constantly, without long breaks.

In this case, the silting of the bottom occurs very slowly, due to this, the life of the well will be significantly increased and it will almost not be necessary to clean it.

Watch the video above, which shows cleaning a well with a bailer.

The simplest kind of bailer, which you can make yourself, is considered a device with a check valve.

The main element of the bailer is a thick pipe with a length of 0.6-2 m, with a diameter corresponding to the size of the well.

In the upper part of the pipe, you need to make a device for attaching the rope, in the lower part - a shoe with a check valve and a cutting edge.

The valve can be made in one of two ways: with a hinged cap or with a ball.

To make a bailer for cleaning a well, you need a drawing, welding machine, grinder, cable, lattice, thick metal pipe, valve.

The optimal section of the pipe is 2-3 cm less than the diameter of the well. Experts recommend using a pipe with a metal thickness of 3-4 mm.

A bailer with lighter walls will not be able to provide the necessary striking force for loosening the soil. To make a shoe, use a pipe of the same or slightly larger diameter.

On the bottom of the shoe, you need to make a cutting edge or weld two metal fangs.

When the bailer for the well comes into contact with the bottom, the sharp teeth will loosen the stagnant silt deposits, due to which the water well will be cleaned.

The shoe is screwed to the main part on a threaded connection.

Check valve manufacturing

As for the ball valve, you can order it from a turner or make it yourself. The diameter of the ball should be approximately 3.4 of the pipe section.

If it is not possible to carve a metal spherical valve, then you can make it yourself.

Purchase a plastic or rubber ball, cut it in half and fill it with lead shot mixed with good quality waterproof glue.

Dry the blanks, glue them together and sand them. For the bottom of the bailer with a ball valve, a washer is used, the hole of which must be smaller than the diameter of the ball.

The resulting valve works as well as one made from a single piece of metal, but its useful life is limited. The service life of such a valve directly depends on the quality of the adhesive.

The top of the pipe must be limited by a grate that does not allow the ball to go beyond the structure.

The bottom of the bailer is closed with a washer, a kind of reverse funnel is obtained, which prevents the ball from falling out.

When the device is dropped down, the water resistance force acts on the ball, as a result of which it rises, the bailer is filled with a suspension of water, sand, silt, and the well is cleaned.

When lifted, the ball falls again and closes the hole.

Cleaning with such a valve is considered the most reliable, since in its device there is not a single swivel that can break at the most inopportune moment.

Below is a drawing of a bailer for drilling and cleaning wells with a ball valve.

The flat valve is made of steel; for better tightness of the device, the structure can be sealed with rubber or leather. Look at the drawing below of a flat steel valve.

Pay attention to the device of the closing loop, which does not allow the valve cover to get stuck in the open position.

There is a simpler version of a flat valve that is easy to make with your own hands. The valve plate is fixed with any swivel joint.

From above, a rod is welded to the hinged cover, which does not allow the valve to rise more than 70-80 °.

Below you can see a photo and a drawing of a steel check valve.

Drilling a well with a homemade bailer

With the help of a do-it-yourself bailer, you can not only clean, but also drill new wells.

Percussion drilling is used everywhere, as it is the simplest and most accessible way establish water production on their own plot.

The main advantage of shock development is the ability to do all the work with your own hands, and most importantly, without the use of heavy equipment.

Drilling is not possible in all soils, but only in clastic, loose, loose and watery soils. For drilling, a bailer is required for a well with a pipe 3-4 m long.

This will allow you to capture more soil.

Rubber or leather is used for sealing. Experts advise during drilling to replace the cable with a rod made of gas pipe diameter 33, 42 or 48 mm. Although a cable can be left to work in the sand.

In case of urgent need, you can make a drill rod from oak, ash, larch or spruce wood. Do-it-yourself wooden rods are equipped with a metal tip.

It should be noted that wood significantly loses to metal in terms of strength and wear resistance. Therefore, be prepared for the fact that the wooden bar will soon have to be changed to a more reliable fixture.

Drilling is similar to the process of cleaning a well. When the device is lowered into the soil, the valve opens and soil enters the inside of the pipe. During lifting, the valve is in place.

After the bailer reaches the bottom, it must be raised a few meters and lowered again.

This operation is repeated several times until the pipe is full, after which the device is removed from the well, the soil is removed.

For drilling and extracting a pipe from a well, it is necessary to use at least the simplest lifting mechanism, For example, well gate or a small hand winch.

A pipe filled with soil is much heavier, and if it is jerked out, the walls of the hole will collapse.

To prevent shedding of the soil, it is better to make the bailer from casing pipe for drilling wells. The shoe is better to make a conical shape.

The shoe diameter must be smaller than the casing section.

Look at the video above the process of drilling a bailer well in sandy soil.

Clean water today is an expensive pleasure, especially in southern regions countries, so people use wells, wells. But the bottom of each source is covered with silt over time, the walls partially crumble. Timely her from destruction. The average price of a bailer for cleaning a well (electric) is from 9,000 rubles. The cost of work, cleaning is also rapidly rushing up, today the cleaning procedure costs from 15,000 rubles, and drilling - from 800 rubles. running meter. Not everyone can afford. Do not despair, there is a way out - this is a bailer for cleaning the well.

If the well is operated for a long time, the amount of water supplied decreases. The main reason is the flooding of the bottom and a bailer for cleaning wells can solve this problem.

How to assemble a bailer on your own?

Making the unit is a simple matter even for a novice master. Of course, the "machine" is primitive, but quite productive!

What is a bailer

This is a tool consisting of a heavy iron hollow pipe, inside which is an iron ball that acts as a valve. It is hung on a cable, lowered into the water well bore. At the lower end of the pipe, sharp teeth are welded, like fangs, to loosen the silted or petrified base of the bottom and remove adhering organic, inorganic blockages from the walls of the trunk.

Principle of operation

How is the well cleaned up?

• When a heavy section of pipe from a height of 25 - 50 meters (namely, this is the average depth of wells) collapses down with all the force of gravity, the garbage suspension rushes into the device.
• The cast-iron (steel) ball immediately blocks the lower inlet, stones, silt remain inside the structure. You can knock it on the bottom a couple more times, for which it should be lifted and thrown down. Cleansing will go more intensively, it will gather in the bailer large quantity mud.
• You need to pull the unit out by the cable. How? The pipe with the ball themselves have a lot of weight, and wet will also be added.

To facilitate the work, be sure to design, then you can turn the handle, which determines the winding of the cable. Or attach the unit to the winch cable. Press the button, it will drag the device from the bottom, release it, the bailer for the well will fall.

The design of a flat valve can be done independently using improvised means

1. To start with the well. Its dimensions must be calculated taking into account the volume of the water intake pipe, the depth of the well. Measure the bore hole diameter.
2. The manufacture of the bailer begins with the selection of parts.
3. Nominal size for a well 25 m deep metal tube should have from 60 to 80 cm. Too long bailer may be too heavy. And the shortened part will not be able to break through the caked silt.
4. The outer section of the pipe segment must be made in size slightly less than the diameter of the well water intake well.
5. The wall thickness must be chosen in the size of 2 - 4 mm.
6. The lower edges of the pipe must be sharpened from the inside.
7. A lever is welded to the upper part of the device - an arc for tying the cable.
8. For a design with a valve ball, calculate its volume and weight so that it does not get stuck in the tube and does not break through the upper grate - filter (some put an upper limiter). The recommended volume of the ball is 2/3, or ¾ of the size of the diameter (inner) of the bailer. A washer is attached to the bottom of the pipe - the bottom and the teeth of the fangs are welded.
9. Another design of the bailer provides for the presence of a different valve (without a ball), made according to the type of opening, closing curtains. A petal polymer valve or a steel thin spring valve is used. It launches dirt and debris in when the structure falls, and does not let it out when it is raised. Less durable than an iron ball.

The advantages of a metal ball are obvious: it will last a long time, it allows you to get more garbage. But where to buy? Some craftsmen make it on their own from a plastic or rubber ball, fill it with shot through a tiny hole, and seal it with strong waterproof glue.

All standard wells can be fitted with a 40 mm ball valve mechanism

How to properly clean a well with a bailer

The process of using this tool for operation is quite laborious, but safe and environmentally friendly, in contrast to chemical, biological cleaning methods using reagents. The well does not crumble.

The technology of the work is as follows.

• The bailer on a cable is released into free flight along the water intake pipe of the well.
• When falling, the teeth and sharp ends of the tube dig into the layer of dirt, disturb it, it rushes into the device.
• A ball attached to a loop takes off under the pressure of water, then falls, blocking the exit of debris.
• Repeated immersion takes away another part of the dirty layer, after which the bailer is pulled up. The valve firmly holds back organic and inorganic deposits inside.
• It is better to tie the cable to the winch, it weighs a lot.

You can not run it and pull it out of the intake pipe in jerks.

Using a bailer when drilling

Do-it-yourself bailer for a well this process performs several functions: deepens the well, disinfects - removes biological remains (quacks, birds, midges that have fallen from above), cleans from earthen rock scree and silt pollution.

Do-it-yourself wells are carried out in the same way as cleaning. For a more powerful deepening process, it is placed inside a special glass, which is manually hammered into the ground. At the same time, they produce additional devices for its uniform entry: a shock heavy rod, or encircle the glass with a heavy clamp, which is used to hit the welded stopper together from opposite sides.

WATCH VIDEO

Making a bailer with your own hands will not take much time. The thing in the economy is irreplaceable. It protects the source from destruction, pollution and causes its deepening. Be sure to follow the rules of use, a do-it-yourself bailer made by oneself is heavy in weight and can injure with sharp teeth.

If you are going to drill a well in your area, you will need interesting and convenient fixture- a bailer. It will be useful both for construction and for cleaning an already operated facility from debris and silt.

This design is simple, but quite effective. It does not hurt to understand the device in more detail, as well as how to make a bailer for cleaning the well yourself.

How the device works

Bailer for more simple design. But for drilling with a shock-rope method, a slightly more complex device is used.

1. A simplified version consists of a piece of pipe, where a check valve is located inside the lower part. Sand, silt or clay, which often clogs the wellbore, gets into the lowered pipe, remains in it. All that is required is to lower the structure down, wait until it is full, then pull it out. The operation should be repeated until the desired result is achieved.
2. For percussion - rope mechanism, equipped with a percussion cartridge, as well as a driving glass. Drilling of wells with a bailer is carried out without well flushing, which is important when opening and testing an aquifer.

Note!
This drilling method is considered to be, although not as high-performance, but as gentle as possible for the well.
Moreover, the shock-rope method is most effective when working with highly mobile soil layers (quicksands).

Device manufacturing

Wells vary in diameter. Today we will look at how a bailer is made for cleaning a well of the most common size. When you make the mechanism, keep in mind that it should be 1.5–2 cm less in thickness than the well itself. This is necessary for the unhindered penetration of the device inside.

Ball valve design

1. Cut a piece of metal pipe, with an inner diameter of 0.59 cm, and a length of 80 cm.
2. You will have to buy or order a 4-centimeter metal ball.
3. Weld a thick washer with a funnel top to the bottom of the pipe. Fit the hole under the ball for a good entry.

1. If the bottom of the washer has a flat plane, this is quite acceptable. Even the shape of the reverse funnel is acceptable.
2. To prevent the ball from flying out of the pipe, an iron grate should be welded in its upper part.
3. At the same end, weld an arc of thick wire. A cable or chain of the required length will be passed through it in the future.

Note!
In order to make the cleaning of the well with a bailer easier and faster, it does not hurt to equip it with several metal teeth from below.
When immersed, they will stick into the ground, loosening it.

How to make a bailer ball

Not everyone will be able to get a ball of the desired diameter.

There is a very simple way out - to make it with your own hands from improvised materials.

1. Find a baby ball right size preferably made of thick rubber.
2. Cut it into two equal halves.
3. Put pieces of lead, shot, balls from bearings or nuts into each of the halves. The main thing is that the contents should be as heavy as possible in weight.
4. Fill in the remaining voids epoxy glue and let it cool down.
5. Sand both parts of the ball until smooth planes are reached, then glue them with the same epoxy resin.
6. The ball is ready, the price is minimal, and its service life and durability will delight you.

Bailer with flat valve

If it is impossible or unwilling to make a ball valve, it is quite acceptable to make a flat locking mechanism in the fixture.

Such a bailer device for wells is even simpler, craftsmen manage to make it even from plastic bottles.

1. The valve has an elliptical shape, and its smaller diameter corresponds to the inner diameter in the pipe, and the larger one is 2 cm wider.
2. At the bottom of the pipe, not reaching 1 cm before the cut, drill two holes for the bolt. It is recommended to take it 6–8 mm thick, and longer than the thickness of the pipe itself. It will make assembly easier.
3. Screw the valve to the bolt from above, with copper or aluminum wire at two points. To do this, four holes are made in it.

1. The valve mount must be free, then the bolt can be easily removed from the wire rings.
2. When assembling, insert the valve into the pipe, bending slightly, then, passing through the wire rings, drive the bolt and tighten the nut.

How to use the ready device

Once you've made your own bailer to fit your well, it's time to try it out. useful device on practice.

1. Pick up a strong cable, cord or chain. Its length should be with a margin.
2. Thread the cord through the prepared loop at the top of the bailer tube.
3. The instruction advises to lower the device into the well until it stops. Then lift it up about 50-70 cm and release it sharply.
4. Falling down at a certain speed, the ball inside the pipe will jump up, opening access to water mixed with silt and debris.
5. Do not pull out the pipe completely after the first throw. She did not scoop up enough sand at one time, therefore, lift and release the rope several times.
6. When you feel the bailer is full, pull it out and pour out the contents.

1. If it is physically difficult for you to do such work, mount a gate in the future that looks like a well analogue. It will make the work process much easier.

Note!
On average, for one lowering, the pipe scoops up about 0.3 kg of clay or sand with water.
In this case, 3 cm of bottom sediments are selected.
Based on this data, you can easily calculate the frequency of cleaning, as well as the time spent on work.

Conclusion

With the help of a repair team is not possible. The lack of access roads for a car equipped with a pump or pump is not a reason to refuse to clean your communications. By making the simplest device, you will get rid of many problems.

Lot good examples you are offered a video in this article, which tells in detail about the process of work.

many owners summer cottages wells are used to ensure uninterrupted water supply in the absence of a central water supply. For any well, sooner or later there comes a time when it is necessary to Maintenance. This is due to the fact that over time, the water source is subjected to siltation, resulting in a decrease in its flow rate.

You can remove sand, silt and rust from the bottom of the well using a special vehicle, pump or injection gun. But such equipment is not always available, and it is not advisable to buy it for private use because of the rather high cost. Alternative device for cleaning the well is a bailer, which without special efforts you can do it yourself. Therefore, further it will be considered how to make a bailer at home.

Design features of the bailer

A bailer is a device that is used:

1. For percussion drilling in loose soils aquifers and quicksand, when the earth is not able to stay in the cavity of the driven glass.
2. To carry out the cleaning of wells from silt and sand, which eventually settle on their bottom.

Figure 1. A flat flap valve has a loop to which a cord is attached to allow the valve to be opened and closed.

The bailer is a pipe, the length of which varies from 0.6 to 2.0 m, and the diameter corresponds to the diameter of the well. In the upper part of this device there is a loop for attaching the rope, and in the lower part there is a shoe with a cutting edge and a check valve. It is the presence of a check valve that allows the sludge to remain inside the bailer. Via cutting edge cutting into the ground is carried out, which allows you to get more silt and sand at a time. Usually the shoe is attached to the pipe with threaded connection which makes it easy to replace if necessary.

The valve can be designed different ways. On fig. 1 shows a flat flap valve, which is the most simple option. It is equipped with a loop to which a cord is attached, which allows you to close and open it like an ordinary door. For better tightness, the valve can be equipped with a rubber seal.

Another way to create a valve is to use a ball. In the cavity of such a bailer there is a grate through which silt and sand pass. When the device is lowered into the well, the soil pushes the ball out of the inlet, and when it is raised to the surface, the ball descends under the action of gravity, closing the hole.

Tools and materials for the construction of the bailer

Simple enough. Before starting work, prepare the required tools and materials. To do this, you can use improvised means or purchase everything you need in the store.

Usually for the manufacture of the bailer is used:

• welding machine;
• grinder (hacksaw);
• metal pipe of the required diameter;
• metal cable;
• washer with a flat surface;
• metal grate;
• rubber ball(metal ball);
• shot or balls from bearings, glue (if necessary).

The main structural element is a metal pipe, from correct selection the size of which will depend on the efficiency of cleaning the well. When choosing a pipe, you should pay attention to its outer diameter, because the smaller the gap it enters the well, the better it will be cleaned. In this case, insufficient clearance can lead to jamming of the bailer. The pipe length is also important parameter, since too short a pipe segment will move along the well with distortions, and a pipe that is too long will significantly complicate the process of lifting it to the surface. Therefore, the outer diameter of the pipe for the bailer is recommended to be chosen 2-3 cm less than the diameter of the well, and its length can be in the range of 0.6-2.0 m, depending on the outer diameter.

An equally important parameter is the thickness of the pipe wall, which significantly affects the well cleaning process.

The thicker the wall, the heavier the bailer will be, which allows you to increase its penetrating inertia.

On the other hand, a too thick pipe with a long length can lead to excess weight, which will greatly complicate the cleaning process. Therefore, it is recommended to use a pipe with a wall thickness of about 2-4 mm.

Not less than important element design is a spherical valve, the manufacture of which will require the search for a metal ball of the appropriate diameter (at least 2/3, but not more than ¾ of the inner diameter of the pipe). Usually its diameter is 40 mm. Such a ball can be ordered by a turner, bought in a store or made by hand. If you chose last option, then you need to purchase a plastic or rubber ball of the required diameter in a children's toy store, and lead shot in a hunting goods store. If it is not possible to buy shot, balls from bearings are perfect instead. The ball is cut in half, the fraction in suitable capacity mixed with waterproof glue, after which both halves of the ball are filled with this mixture. After drying, both hemispheres are ground and glued together. The strength of such a ball will directly depend on the glue used.

Making a bailer with your own hands

It does not take much time to create a bailer. It can be done in just a few hours. All work can be conditionally divided into several stages:

1. A thick washer is attached to the bottom of the prepared pipe by welding, which will serve as the bottom of the product. In this case, the seat of the hole must ideally fit the diameter of the ball.
2. A metal grate is welded to the top of the pipe, which will not allow the ball to fly out of the bailer. Also in the upper part you need to make a mount to which the metal cable will be fixed.
3. To increase the efficiency of the bailer, several strong metal fangs can be welded to its lower edge, with the help of which silt and sand will be loosened.
4. A cable is attached to the fabricated structure.

In this way, a bailer with a ball valve is made. However, there are other ways to make the valve. It can be a flat or elliptical valve made of plastic bottle. However, it is worth noting that the service life of such devices will be significantly less than that of a ball mechanism.

A well is a proven way to organize uninterrupted or summer cottages, giving yourself independence from a centralized system. If competently, you can provide your home with a sufficient amount of water for both domestic and household needs. But for this you need to take care of effective adaptation for work. If you have neither desire nor money to buy professional equipment, you can make a tool with your own hands. Great option- a bailer. What kind of device is this, how to build it and how to use it correctly for drilling a well for water? Further, we tell in detail and show in photographs and drawings.

Design and types

Bailer - special device for drilling and cleaning of a well by shock-rope method. Structurally, it is a piece of pipe of a certain length and diameter with a special valve and a cable: the first one provides excavation of the earth, and the second one lowers the tool to the required depth. General principle The operation of the tool is simple: by hammering, the pipe cuts into the ground with sharp edges, the valve opens from impact and soil begins to enter the hole formed, and when the pipe cavity is completely filled, the valve closes under gravity.

The main working element of the bailer is the valve. Its main task is to take the soil into the pipe and prevent it from coming out until the end of the current driving cycle. The valve can be made in several variations - this is what serves as the basis for the classification of drilling bailers. The most common types of devices:

Bailer scheme

1. With a ball valve - the most reliable option for drilling: the valve seems to sit on the washer, but when it hits it bounces and opens the way for the soil, and after filling the pipe it closes the hole again. But keep in mind that such a valve is the most difficult to perform: you need to make or buy a ball, the diameter of which will ideally fit the pipe dimensions.
2. With a petal valve - an easy-to-use, but not durable version of the bailer. Such a valve has the form of an ellipsoidal plate made of polymer or metal. Due to the impact, the “petals” of the valve open and the soil begins to pass freely into the pipe cavity, and when the device is raised, the valve closes.

Materials for assembling the bailer

Before starting the manufacture of the bailer, you should stock up necessary set tools and materials, as well as prepare a drawing of the fixture. The latter does not have to be done with your own hands - you can use the ready-made one. But the preparation of tools will have to pay more attention. To assemble the bailer you will need:

• apparatus for welding;
• hacksaw or grinder;
• a piece of metal pipe;
• cable;
• steel grating;
• arc / loop for the cable.

Bailer with ball valve

This is general list materials and tools for creating a bailer. Additional set depends on the type of device you will be building. So, for a ball fixture, you will need a metal ball, a washer and a rod for the limiter, and for a petal fixture, an ellipsoidal plate for the pipe diameter, wire, washers and nuts.

Now let's take a closer look at the pipe blank. Outside diameter the segment should be 3 cm narrower than the diameter of the prepared well - this will ensure high-quality entry of the device into the working. The length of the pipe should vary from 0.6 to 2 m, depending on the intended depth of the well and the outer diameter of the metal piece. Optimal Thickness pipe walls - 3-4 mm.

Advice. If the length of the pipe is less than 0.6 m, it will begin to warp during drilling, and if it is more than 2 m, the procedure for lifting the device will become more complicated.

Production of a bailer for drilling

Step by step we will consider the creation of a ball and petal bailer.

For Assembly ball fixture you will need a metal ball, the diameter of which must be at least 2/3, but not more than 3/4 of the diameter of the inner cavity of the pipe segment. It can be both bought and crafted. with my own hands. In the latter case, prepare a rubber ball of the required diameter, cut it in half and fill the halves with a mixture of fine shot with a waterproof adhesive, and after the composition dries, sand the hemispheres and glue them back into the ball. Next, the bailer is assembled according to the following scheme:

• Weld a washer around the bottom of the pipe section in a circle - it will act as the bottom.
• Drop the ball into the tube.
• Install a limiter at the level of 3 ball radii - drill two parallel holes in the pipe and thread the pin through, welding their ends to the walls of the segment.
• Weld a steel grate to the top of the segment - it will hold the ball in the bailer.
• Weld an arc-mount on the grate to fix the cable.

reed valve manufactured using the following technology:

• At the bottom of the pipe at a height of 1 cm, make two holes for the bolts and insert them, but do not tighten.
• Screw the valve onto the bolts - an elliptical plate. Secure the valve with wire at two points. In this case, the fixation must be free so that the "petals" can move.
• After adjusting the position of the plate, bend it slightly and tighten the nuts of the bolts.
• Weld a steel grate to the upper end, and an arc for the cable on it.

Rules for using the bailer

Making a bailer is half the battle. It is equally important to learn how to use it correctly so that drilling is both effective and easy.

Instructions for drilling a well with a bailer:

1. Thread the cable into the prepared arc.
2. Hang the bailer with a cable support structure, for example, on a tripod.
3. Drive the bailer into the ground with force until the pipe cavity is filled.
4. Pull out the tool and clear the soil.
5. Repeat driving/pulling cycles until you get the desired depth hole.

Advice. If during clogging the bailer cannot go deep into the ground, make it heavier: weld a piece of metal reinforcement to the walls.

If you are working on sandy soils, it is recommended to water the soil before deepening the bailer - this will reduce the risk of it falling into the well. And in the case of working on hard soils, it is advisable to equip the lower edge of the pipe with special points or metal fangs - thanks to them, the bailer will cut into the soil better. You can also use a chisel for preliminary grinding of rocky soil.

So, of course, the bailer is a convenient and affordable tool for drilling a well for water. on their own. But it can only be effective if correct manufacture and competent application in business, therefore, consider all the most important subtleties of assembly and operation of the bailer so that your efforts are not in vain.
