Silica Sand Mesh 8–16 50 Kg/Bag

Silica Sand Mesh 8–16 50 Kg/Bag

Silica Sand Mesh 8–16 is a medium-grained filtration medium designed for reliable and efficient removal of suspended solids, turbidity, and fine sediments from water and other liquids. With a particle size range of approximately 1.18 to 2.38 mm, this mesh grade offers an optimal balance between filtration precision and water flow rate. It is commonly used as an intermediate or single-layer filter media in industrial, commercial, and domestic water treatment systems.

Manufactured from high-purity natural silica, the sand contains SiO₂ levels of approximately 95–99%, ensuring excellent durability and chemical stability. The granules are hard and angular, providing a large surface area for sediment capture while resisting degradation from abrasion or pressure. Its chemically inert nature ensures compatibility with potable water applications and various chemical processes.

Each 50 kg bag is filled with uniformly sized particles, ensuring consistent filtration performance and reducing the risk of channeling or clogging in filter beds. The low moisture content (less than 1%) ensures long-term storage stability and prevents compaction, maintaining its performance over time.
