Stauf Quartz Sand: Fire-Dried Quartz Sand for Epoxy and Leveling Applications

What is Stauf Quartz Sand?

Stauf Quartz Sand is a high-quality, fire-dried quartz sand specifically designed for broadcasting on epoxy primers and extending leveling compounds. The product features a grain size of 0.4 - 0.8 mm, ensuring even distribution and optimal adhesion for various flooring applications. This sand is suitable for broadcasting on epoxy primers, filling cracks, and extending leveling compounds. Its specific grain size means the sand is dust-free, promoting a clean work environment and optimal results. The product is compatible with underfloor heating systems and comes in a beige color.

How does the product work?

Stauf Quartz Sand is easy to use and can be directly applied to epoxy and leveling systems. When used on epoxy primers, the sand is evenly spread over the wet surface to promote adhesion and create a rough texture for additional flooring layers. When added to leveling compounds, it extends the material and enhances floor strength. The recommended quantity for broadcasting is 2.5 - 3 kg per m², depending on the substrate and flooring system specifications. Up to 12 kg of sand can be added to 25 kg of leveling compound.

Benefits and Features

Stauf Quartz Sand offers several benefits for professional flooring applications. It has an even grain distribution and is dust-free, ensuring a cleaner work environment. Being fire-dried, it remains moisture-free, guaranteeing optimal adhesion to the substrate. It is also suitable for underfloor heating, increasing the product's versatility. The beige color provides a neutral appearance that remains invisible beneath flooring materials. With a grain size of 0.4 - 0.8 mm, the product is perfect for broadcasting on epoxy and leveling mixtures.

Instructions for Use

For best results, the substrate should be checked for dryness, evenness, and adhesion according to the applicable standards (DIN 18356 and DIN 18365). Ensure the substrate is dust-free, free of contaminants, and solid. When broadcasting Stauf Quartz Sand on epoxy primer, spread it evenly over the wet primer to create a rough surface. When using with leveling compounds, add the sand to the mixture as instructed to achieve the desired consistency and strength. Store the product in a dry place to maintain quality.

Maintenance or Advice

Stauf Quartz Sand should be stored in a dry location to preserve its quality. Ensure that the working environment’s temperature and humidity are within the recommended values during application. Always follow the technical guidelines of the epoxy or leveling product used to ensure optimal results. Clean tools immediately after use to prevent sand and resin buildup. Always verify that the substrate is suitable for the product’s application according to relevant standards and regulations. A test area may be applied to verify suitability if in doubt.
