Its tonal variation adds depth and character, making it suitable for both traditional and modern builds. As with all clay bricks, natural variation is expected, so mixing bricks from at least three packs on site helps achieve a consistent appearance.\n\nThis brick offers a balance of visual appeal and technical performance, with frost resistance, reliable strength, and controlled water absorption for standard UK exposure.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e215mm × 102.5mm × 65mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eColour:\u003c\/b\u003eRed \/ Multi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTexture:\u003c\/b\u003eDragfaced, Wirecut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWater Absorption:\u003c\/b\u003e? 12%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDurability:\u003c\/b\u003eF2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCompressive Strength:\u003c\/b\u003e? 40 N\/mm²\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePack Quantity:\u003c\/b\u003e400\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eActive Soluble Salts:\u003c\/b\u003eS2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eGross Dry Density:\u003c\/b\u003e1480 kg\/m³\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eInitial Rate of Water Absorption:\u003c\/b\u003e1.0 – 2.2 kg\/(m²·min)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eReaction to Fire:\u003c\/b\u003eClass A1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDescription \u0026amp; Usage Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e The Crofters Medley is manufactured using the wirecut extrusion process, giving consistent sizing while retaining natural character. The dragfaced surface creates texture, and the red \/ multi colour blend ensures a lively façade.\n\nWith a compressive strength of ? 40 N\/mm² and water absorption ? 12%, this brick performs reliably when detailed properly. The F2 frost resistance rating makes it suitable for standard UK conditions. Correct design measures such as cavity walls, drainage, flashing, and appropriate mortar are key to long-term durability.\n\nFor visual consistency, bricks should be blended from at least three packs during installation. Ordering a sample or building a trial panel is recommended before bulk purchase.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003ch4\u003eIs ? 12% water absorption suitable for external walls?\u003c\/h4\u003e Yes — this figure is within the expected range for facing bricks and provides dependable performance with correct detailing. \u003ch4\u003eWhat does the F2 durability rating mean?\u003c\/h4\u003e It means the brick is frost-resistant and designed for use in normal UK external exposure conditions. \u003ch4\u003eWill the red \/ multi colour vary between packs?\u003c\/h4\u003e Yes — natural clay variation is expected. Mixing bricks from multiple packs helps achieve a more even finish across the façade.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheck out our full range of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/jjbuildingmaterials.co.uk\/collections\/building-supplies\"\u003ebuilding supplies\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse more \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/jjbuildingmaterials.co.uk\/collections\/bricks-blocks\"\u003ebricks \u0026amp; blocks\u003c\/a\u003e available online.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Weinerberger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51448304664918,"sku":"161986","price":412.18,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0905\/4509\/4998\/files\/wienerberger-crofters-medley-facing-brick-pack-of-400-5895152.jpg?v=1772656833","url":"https:\/\/jjbuildingmaterials.co.uk\/products\/wienerberger-crofters-medley-facing-brick-pack-of-400","provider":"JJ Building Materials","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
