Concrete Sand Delivery High-Spec Aggregates for Texas & Oklahoma
Our Concrete Sand is washed and precisely screened to ensure maximum structural integrity for every pour. This coarse, sharp aggregate is the industry standard for high-PSI concrete mixes, paver bedding, and septic applications. We maintain a steady supply across Texas and Oklahoma to ensure your project stays on schedule without delays.
High-Performance Concrete Sand for Professional Results
Concrete Sand (also known as “washed sand” or “torpedo sand”) is a coarse, washed aggregate screened to remove silt and organic impurities. Its larger grain size and jagged texture provide the mechanical grip needed for high-strength construction.
At Select Sand & Gravel, we source Concrete Sand from top-tier pits across Texas and Oklahoma. Whether you are pouring a high-PSI foundation in Houston or bedding utility lines in Oklahoma City, we deliver the material you need to keep your crew moving.

The Contractor’s Choice for Strength and Drainage
Quality sand is about more than just filling space. Our Concrete Sand is processed to ensure:
- Maximum Bond Strength:The sharp, angular grains allow cement and mortar to stick better than smooth, wind-blown sand.
- Excellent Drainage:As a "sharp" sand with very few fine particles, it allows water to pass through quickly—perfect for septic fields and drainage layers.
- Reliable Consistency:We provide uniform gradation to eliminate soft spots in your mix or base.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary difference between Concrete Sand and Mason Sand?
Concrete Sand features a much larger, “sharp” grain size designed for structural strength and drainage in heavy-duty mixes. Conversely, Mason Sand is screened much finer to create a smooth, buttery mortar that is easier for masons to work into brick and stone joints.
Does your Concrete Sand meet standard ASTM C33 specifications for construction?
Yes, our material is sourced and screened to meet the rigorous ASTM C33 requirements for fine aggregate in concrete. We can provide specific sieve analysis and gradational reports upon request to ensure the material meets your engineer’s project specs.
What is the average weight of a cubic yard of Concrete Sand?
On average, Concrete Sand weighs approximately [Insert Weight] lbs per cubic yard, though this can fluctuate based on the moisture content at the time of hauling. Our dispatch team can provide exact tonnage-to-yardage conversions to ensure you order the precise amount for your job site.
Can Concrete Sand be used for residential sandboxes or play areas?
While the material is washed and clean, its sharp, coarse texture can be abrasive on the skin and is not ideal for children’s play. We generally recommend using our White Brick Sand or a fine Mason Sand for a softer, more user-friendly experience in recreational spaces.
