ARDEX Screed Sand

ARDEX Sand – 25kg bag is size graded and kiln dried to ensure consistent results when used ARDEX products. Always read individual ARDEX product datasheets for complete installation instructions. ARDEX Sand is used with:

 

ARDEX WPM300

Used as a priming sand to ensure additional mechanical bond for the subsequent application of ARDEX levelling compounds. The sand is applied into the wet WPM300  at an application rate of 700gms/m2.

Upon drying the excess sand is vacuumed  and may be retained for future use.

 

ARDEX A45

Sand is used as filler to economically extend the coverage of ARDEX A45 in non critical applications including large floor defects and deep ramps. Used up to a maximum ratio  of 3 parts A45 to 1 part sand by volume.

Please note that adding sand will change the characteristics of compounds. In some cases a second application of un-sanded ARDEX compound may be required to obtain a sufficiently smooth surface.
