The only problem you may have is if the ducer scatches the 5200 then the oil can get in the 5200 and break it down chemically. I have seen 2 ducers where the mineral oil was leaking out from the seal area and when the owners took them off the 5200 was deteriorating.

But I know of 5 others with the same set up and they have not had a problem.

I'm gonna coat the inside of the well including the 5200 bead around the bottom w/a DAPCO latex sealer...should isolate oil from 5200

Capt Pete...I think they don't want you to set the ducer in 5200 which isn't what I'm doin here...it'll be suspended in the oil...the 5200 is adhesive/sealer for the pipe/well only, so I think it'll be OK...

And the ethyl glycol anti-freeze concerns me more than the mineral oil in terms of breaking down the 5200 over time...thanks for the suggestion and I'll use as plan B, but will forge ahead w/ min. oil til it poofs in my face...LOL!!...
