Best Sand High-Purity Silica Sand and Gravel
Best Sand High-Purity Silica Sand and Gravel
Best Sand’s high-purity silica sand and gravel are widely used in the foundry industry. The sub-rounded grain shape is proven to reduce expansion defects in cores and molds of all casting types. Furthermore, the high silica content allows Best Sand to be used among steel foundries as well.
Best gravels are low in iron, alkali, and other impurities making them ideal for the manufacturing of refractories.
The wide size range of Best Sand makes it perfect for ladle lining backfill.
"Prior to our relationship with Weaver Materiel, we were purchasing riser sleeves direct from the OEM. As a stocking distributor, Weaver typically is able to deliver same or next day. OEM lead times averaged three to four weeks. With Weaver, I've been able to reduce my working inventory by about 40%."
