Washed Mason Sand in a 1/8" Size Range

Washed mason sand in a 1/8" size range is a finely graded, clean sand commonly used in both residential and commercial construction. This material is produced by washing natural sand to remove silt, clay, and other impurities, resulting in a smooth, consistent texture ideal for applications requiring a clean, uniform finish.

The 1/8" particle size ensures excellent workability and a soft, even surface, making it perfect for mixing mortar for brick and block work, creating smooth underlayment for pavers, or as a base for pool installations. The washed attribute means less dust and fewer contaminants, which is especially beneficial for indoor or decorative projects. While its fine texture makes it easy to spread and shape, it is less suitable for applications requiring significant compaction or drainage, such as base layers for heavy structures. Overall, washed mason sand is valued for its cleanliness, versatility, and ability to deliver a professional finish.
