Bundaberg kiln dried silica sand, used in epoxy flooring for slip resistance and sand broadcast systems. As well as mixing with epoxy to make repair and cove mortars.
When applied correctly Silica Sand will reach Australian Standard OHS slip-resistant requirements. Pair it with our GP Epoxy for a range of applications or 6150RC for rapid and strong repairs.
Choose fromFine, Medium or Coarse silica sand, depending on whether you're creating a smooth self-levelling mix, general-purpose coving and repair mortar, or a heavier mortar for deeper repairs.
The three grades can also be blended together to tailor the consistency and aggregate profile of your epoxy mortar.
A fine silica sand suited to applications where a smooth finish and fine aggregate profile are required.
Recommended for:
Best choice for:
Self-levelling and fine finishing applications.
Our recommendedgeneral-purpose epoxy aggregate and the most versatile grade in the range.
Its broad particle grading makes it well suited to epoxy mortars that need good body while remaining easy to mix and trowel.
Recommended for:
Best choice for:
Coving and everyday epoxy repair work.
A coarse silica aggregate used to add structure and bulk to heavier epoxy mortars.
C1 is particularly useful when blended with F6 for deeper repairs where a coarser aggregate profile is desirable.
Recommended for:
Best choice for:
Deeper repairs and heavy-duty epoxy mortars.
| Application | Recommended Aggregate |
|---|---|
| 1–2 mm self-levelling / smoothing | SF2 |
| 2–4 mm smoothing mortar | SF2 + F6 |
| Standard epoxy coving | F6 |
| 3–10 mm general repair | F6 |
| 5–15 mm heavier repair | F6 + C1 |
| 10–25+ mm repair | F6 + higher proportion of C1 |
Thicknesses are a general application guide and will depend on the epoxy resin system, aggregate loading and installation method.
The three grades can be used individually or combined to create different mortar characteristics.
| Application | Suggested Aggregate Blend |
| Fine self-levelling | 100% SF2 |
| Fine smoothing mortar | 50% SF2 / 50% F6 |
| Coving | 100% F6 |
| General repair mortar | 100% F6 |
| Medium/heavy repair | 70% F6 / 30% C1 |
| Heavy repair mortar | 50% F6 / 50% C1 |
| Deep repair mortar | 30–40% F6 / 60–70% C1 |
Blend percentages refer to the aggregate portion of the mix only.
The required epoxy-to-aggregate ratio will depend on the resin system and desired working consistency.

Keeping these three grades on hand allows installers to cover most everyday epoxy flooring, coving and repair applications without carrying a large range of different aggregates.
Contains crystalline silica.
Avoid generating or breathing airborne dust. Use suitable dust extraction, respiratory protection and appropriate PPE when handling dry silica sand.
Always refer to the applicable Safety Data Sheet before use.
