Red
Daltex Red 2-5mm is a versatile red granite chipping that can be used on its own to create a vibrant surface. It can also be mixed with white or black in low percentages to add contrast, or with any other plain color such as black, green, or white in a 50/50 mix to create unique and unusual surfaces.
Sizes: 1-3mm,
Shape: Angular
Rock type: Granite

PSV – Polished Stone Value: 53
The PSV of an aggregate is a measure of the resistance of an aggregate to polishing and the value is established by subjecting the aggregate to a standard polishing process and then testing the aggregate with a portable skid resistance tester. Aggregate that has a PSV over 60 is regarded as a High Skid Resistant Aggregate. The higher the PSV figure the greater resistance the aggregate has to polishing.
AAV – Aggregate Abrasion Value: 1.3
A known mass of aggregate chippings are set in resin in a small test panel and subject to abrasion on a grinding apparatus. The loss in weight of the aggregate after a specified time as a percentage of the original weight is the AAV.
AIV – Aggregate Impact Value: 13
The aggregate impact value is a strength value of an aggregate that is determined by performing the Aggregate Impact Test on a sample. The AIV is the percentage of fines produced from the aggregate after subjecting it to a standard amount of impact. Below 10 would be regarded as strong, above 35 would normally be regarded as too weak to be used in road surfaces.
ACV – Aggregate Crushing Value: 12
The aggregate crushing value is a value which indicates the ability of an aggregate to resist crushing. The lower the figure, the stronger the aggregate ie the greater its ability to resist crushing.
Hardness: 7
