Concrete Sand (Concrete, Astm, Grey)
Applications & Uses
Concrete Sand - ASTM Grade, Grey
Concrete sand with ASTM certification is a high-quality, grey-colored aggregate specifically graded for use in concrete mixes. Produced by crushing and screening natural stone, this sand meets strict ASTM standards for particle size and cleanliness, ensuring consistent performance in structural and decorative concrete applications.
The ASTM attribute guarantees that the sand is free from excessive fines and organic materials, which helps achieve optimal strength and durability in finished concrete. Its coarse texture improves the bond between cement and aggregate, making it ideal for ready-mix concrete, precast products, and masonry work. Common uses include residential driveways, patios, sidewalks, and commercial slabs or foundations. The clean, well-graded nature of ASTM concrete sand also makes it suitable for bedding pavers and as a base for pool installations. While its coarser grains provide excellent drainage and compaction, it may not be suitable for applications requiring a very smooth finish.
