Aggregates play a key role in manufacturing concrete masonry units. Tileco Inc. offers an assortment of aggregates, some of which are manufactured here at Tileco, others of which are quarried from across the state. Coral Limestone is transported from the Leeward coast of Oahu. Our cinder is a red porous aggregate quarried from the Big Island.
Our aggregates come in various sizes, the largest being a 3/4 rock. An aggregate described as "3/4" contains rocks 3/4 of an inch in size, though there are a range of smaller sizes within that aggregate type. Something that size can and usually is described as a number three fine or three fine by trade professionals, although the nomenclature may vary amongst individual quarries.
Tileco's masonry sand is made from coral limestone and meets the ASTM C-144 standard.
Please be advised that we sell our aggregates by volume (cubic yards) rather than by weight (tons). Feel free to contact us or visit our facility for a visual confirmation regarding your product of interest. |
