• Properties-Mean Values (Metric Units)
  
  
• Mohs Hardness = 8-9
  
  
• Volume Mass = 2900- 3000kg.m\3 {2800-2900KG.M\3 per Din28062)
  
  
• Compressive Strength = 300- 450Mpa [450-550Mpa per Din28062} 78,000 pounds per square inch.
  
  
• Abradability = max. 5cm\3 / 50cm\2 [4-6cm\3 / 50cm\2 perDIN 28062]
  
  
• Wear Resistance = 110 mm\3
  
  
• Absorption Rate = 0% mass 
  
  
• Thermal Conductivity = 1.9 – 2.2 W.m-\1. K-\1[1.0-1.2W.m-\1 per [DIN 28062]
  
  
• Thermal Shock Resistance = 1000 degree C

F. D. A. Approval 

All Cast Basalt Tiles are F.D.A. approved for use in food processing & handling facilities.

Operation & Maintenance

The Cast Basalt Tile surface is dust free. It is easy to keep clean with normal floor maintenance techniques & equipment. The pattern on the anti- slip tiles is also designed for easy cleaning. Cast Basalt Tiles are resistant to all normal cleaning & sanitizing agents.


Tiles can be packed to customer specifications @ a small additional cost.
