Mapei Quarzo Quartz Sand

Mapei Quartz Sand is a kiln dried quartz sand for use with Mapei epoxy and polyurethane resins. Available in 0.25, 0.5, 0.9, 1.2 and 1.9mm particle sizes.

Best Uses

Mapei's quartz sand range is made from highly pure, washed, kiln-dried, selected quartz. It is available in various mixes in a granulometric curve and is used with epoxy or polyurethane resin to create protective coatings, for grouting and repair work, etc.

Mapei Quartz Sand is ideal to make resin mortar for screeds or repairing floors. It is also ideal for making self levelling resin mortars and skimming mortars for cementitious surfaces. You can also use Mapei Quartz Sand by broadcasting the surface of a resin with the grain in a multi layered coating system or to create an anti slip surface finish.

Application

Mix the quartz sand with epoxy or polyurethane resin to create self-levelling resin coatings, broadcast systems or mortar screeds. It may also be used to make resin mortar for grouting, to repair joints or holes in floors, patches, coves, etc. Lastly, quartz sand may be used to broadcast the surface of fresh resin to increase its overall thickness and to form a rough finish on the surface when a non-slip finish is required, or if you need to form a keying surface for other layers of resin or cementitious products.

To help choose the correct mix of sand and for information on how to apply the sand and its relative consumption rates, please refer to the specific Technical Data Sheet for the resin or cementitious product to be applied.
