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.

What it is for

Where it goes.

  • Residential housing
  • Boundary walls
  • Commercial buildings
  • General construction projects

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.
