Sand (Washed, Spec)
Applications & Uses
Washed Spec Sand
Washed spec sand is a high-quality construction aggregate that has been thoroughly cleaned to remove silt, clay, and other impurities. This washing process results in a cleaner, more consistent product that meets specific grading requirements, making it ideal for projects where uniformity and performance are critical.
The washed attribute ensures minimal dust and debris, which is especially important for applications like concrete production, masonry work, and as a base for pavers or bricks. Its clean, fine texture allows for excellent compaction and a smooth finish, making it suitable for both residential and commercial uses such as playgrounds, sports fields, and landscaping. The main advantage of washed spec sand is its reliability and versatility, though it may be less suitable for drainage applications compared to coarser aggregates.
