Coverage, with the working
A 222 x 73 mm face plus a 10 mm joint gives a coordinating size of 232 x 83 mm, so 1 / (0.232 x 0.083) = 51.9 units per square metre of single skin.
- Units per m², single skin
- 51.9
- Units per m², double skin
- 103.9
- m² per pallet
- 9.6
- Pallet mass
- 1 750 kg
A single skin of stock bricks gives a 106 mm wall.

Why builders choose it
Four reasons, spelled out.
01
High compressive strength
Manufactured to a nominal 7.0 MPa and tested to SANS 1215. Suitable for load bearing masonry in single and double storey work.
02
Consistent dimensions
Dimensional tolerance held inside the limits set by SANS 1215, so your courses run true and your mortar consumption stays predictable.
03
Cost-effective
The lowest cost per square metre in the range for general walling, which is why it remains the default unit on most sites.
04
Durable and reliable
Cured to full strength before dispatch. No green units leave the yard, so nothing arrives that crumbles under a bricklayer's trowel.
