Fine particles fill the pores water needs to drain through, so a few percent of silt and clay can turn a free-draining sand into a wet one. A very uniform sand stays loose; a wide mix packs firm. And sand changes after it's installed, as fines wash in and grains break down.
In Capillary bunkers and arenas, the Capillary Wash Box removes fine particles from the installed sand without removing it, bringing it back towards its original curve.

The recommended ranges are based on industry experience and research and do not guarantee how a sand will perform. Always confirm results with an accredited soil testing laboratory or your sand supplier before ordering or installing sand.
