Metal Casings and Screens are costly.

Installation will be substantially cost effective with TEXMO well casing and ribbed screens when compared with conventional mild steel casing and screens.

Increased entrance resistance due to vertical slot opening.

The horizontal slot openings of TEXMO casing, reduce the entrance resistance and the collapse resistance of the screen is increased.

More than 50% of the slot opening is obstructed by filtering media (Gravel Pack) hence low permeability.

The ribs on the screen keep the filtering media (Gravel Pack) 2mm away from the slot opening. This increases the permeability of TEXMO ribbed screens.

Due to local action and corrosive soil nature, the life of the tube wells is as low as two years only.

TEXMO well casing and ribbed screens are manufactured out of quality PVC compound and thus are totally unaffected by corrosion as PVC being an inert material.

Slot opening gets enlarged and silting starts due to erosion in the screens.

Slot openings do not offer any resistance to flow as they are not subjected to erosion.

Metal casing and screens are heavy thus making installation cumbersome and tedious.

The specific gravity of PVC being 1.4 TEXMO well casing and ribbed screens weigh only 1/5th of the steel casing and screens. This makes it easier to handle and install.

Metal casings require special equipments like welding sets and generating sets for assembly and erection.

No special equipments are required to assemble and install TEXMO well casing and ribbed screens as they are manufactured with screwed socket and spigot ends with trapezoidal threads.

Screen slot widths cannot be made to suit Aquifer Sieve analysis for proper design of the well. Hence silting of the well cannot be avoided.

TEXMO ribbed screens are manufactured with slot widths ranging from 0.2 mm to 3 mm to suit the Aquifer Sieve analysis which helps the engineers to design the well to give better life and yield.
