Joint sand in a segmental pavement installation is a necessary component to aid in the interlocking system, transferring the load from unit to unit and it provides a cushion between them.
The ideal joint sand meets the ASTM C144 standard. This is a specific gradation of fractured angular sand particles of different sizes. This sand will create the structure in the joint which will help to interlock the system together.
Our PolySweep Polymeric Sand and SEK Joint Sand are made using sand that meets the ASTM C144 gradation. It also is cleaned and kiln dried so that it will result in beautiful sand joints for your customers.
