It combines sharp sand and 20mm down crushed aggregate in a balanced 50\/50 ratio, providing a strong and reliable base material for producing high-quality concrete. This mini bag format is ideal for jobs where only a limited amount of material is required, such as footings, driveways, paths, patch repairs, and fence post installations. The blend is formulated to deliver durable, long-lasting results, making it suitable for both DIY tasks and small-scale professional work. As a natural product, variations in colour and texture may occur depending on the source, but quality and performance remain consistent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFurther Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50\/50 mix of sharp sand and 20mm down aggregate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for small concreting jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for footings, paths, driveways, and post setting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy-to-handle mini bag format\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural variation in colour and texture may occur\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBag Size: Mini Bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Type: Ballast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Weight: 25kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat is 20mm ballast used for?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is commonly used for general concreting applications including footings, driveways, paths, and fence post installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDo I need to add anything to make concrete?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
