Mason Sand (Non-Spec)
Applications & Uses
Mason Sand - Non-Spec
Mason sand in a non-spec grade is a fine, clean sand commonly sourced from natural deposits and screened to remove larger particles. Unlike spec-graded mason sand, non-spec varieties may have slight variations in grain size and composition, making them a versatile and cost-effective choice for a range of construction and landscaping needs.
The non-spec attribute means this mason sand is not manufactured to meet strict ASTM or local building code requirements, but it still offers excellent workability for general-purpose applications. It is ideal for use as a base for pavers, under pool liners, in sandboxes, or for mixing with cement for mortar. Its fine texture allows for smooth finishes and easy leveling, though it may not be suitable for structural or load-bearing masonry work where precise grading is required. Non-spec mason sand is valued for its affordability and versatility, making it a popular option for both residential and commercial projects where exact specifications are not critical.
