Description

Silica Sand is a hard, durable granular mineral material available in controlled particle-size ranges for water filtration and industrial applications. Starke supplies graded silica sand for filtration systems and can offer application-specific sizes for epoxy flooring, paints and coatings, aquarium use and other industrial requirements.

The correct grade depends on the end use. Water-treatment buyers typically specify particle size, effective size and uniformity coefficient, while flooring, coating and aquarium buyers may select primarily by mesh, grain size, appearance and project requirement.
