Product Code SFS580

ASMS SFS580 is a 20x0mm material generally requiring additional processing or blending for civil works.


APPLICATIONS

SFS580 is used in a variety of unsealed applications, including:

  • Pavements
  • Hard Stand Areas
  • Carparks
  • Road Shoulders


COMPOSITION AND MATERIALS

SFS580 is produced from steel slag by crushing, screening and processing to remove metals resulting in a 20mm minus steel slag material which may contain consolidated lumps in excess of 20mm. Steel furnace slag is a non-metallic product consisting essentially of calcium silicates with fused oxides of iron and aluminium. The material is produced simultaneously with steel in a basic oxygen furnace and is a predominantly crystalline, solid rock-like product.


ADVANTAGES

  • Inherent cementitious properties
  • Interlocking particle shape
  • High load bearing capacity
  • Effective utilisation of an industrial by-product conserving natural resources
