Fine Sand Supply

Finer sand for plaster, mortar and finishing work

Fine sand pile showing smooth, even grain texture used for plaster and finishing work

What it is

Fine sand has smaller, more even grains than ordinary raiti, which makes a smoother mix.

What it is used for

  • Plaster and rendering
  • Mortar and jointing
  • Grouting
  • Bedding for tiles

How it differs from similar materials

Finer than raiti, so it gives a smoother surface. It is not the choice for bulk filling, where the coarser sand works.

What affects the rate

Material type, quality, quantity, location and delivery requirements. All five are discussed before you confirm an order.

Delivery

Delivered across Karachi by dumper, subject to availability and where the site is.

Common questions

Where is fine sand used?
Plaster, mortar, grouting and tile bedding. Anywhere a smooth finish matters.
Is fine sand the same as plaster sand?
They overlap. Plaster sand is chosen for a clean, light colour with low silt, which fine sand is not always graded for.
Can fine sand be used for filling?
It can, but it is not the sensible choice for bulk filling. Coarser sand works for that and packs just as well.
