Filtration Sand
Our Standards:
- Low UC to less than 1.4 for precise sizes
- Consistent chemical and physical properties
- AWWA B100 and NSF 61 quality assured with an effective
testing plan: 1) prepare a sampling plan 2) thorough in-house
testing 3) outside independent testing
- Convenient packaging and timely delivery for both
domestic use and export
- AWWA B100 AND NSF 61 quality assured. Sampling
plans, in-house size tests and independent testing assure the
filter media meets size, chemical and physical requirements
- Sand meets PA DEP disposal sand specification
(0.30-0.60mm UC < 3.5)
How to Purchase:
Call or email us with the effective size (D10 size in millimeter)
and the uniformity co-efficient (UC).
