Brillo Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 I'm looking for heavy sand (as the title implies) for my SEB rear bag. I cannot locate any in Gloucestershire, having tried various local foundries. Does anyone know where there is a supply near my county or near Diggle?

Obviously, it's heavy but go for a bag of Chromite - it's half the price. You will easily sell the remainder at Diggle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John MH Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Have just got some online, about £33.00 for 25KG delivered, more than I'm likely to need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brillo Posted May 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2013 My sand arrived yesterday and the delivery guy put it in garage for me. "Please be quick" he said as I was opening the door, "this is bl***y heavy". I didn't give it a thought until I went to fill my SEB rear bag this morning. I couldn't believe the weight of the box it was in. It was about the size of two shoe boxes so I had a pre-conceived idea of its weight. Was I wrong! I almost did my back in. Needless to say the rear bag is very, very stable now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stottycake Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 I know this is an old post, But can anyone tell me how much chromite sand it would take to fill a seb rear bag. As in weight, Cheers Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gun Pimp Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Obviously, back bags come in many different sizes but on average think around 15lbs when filled with Zircon or Chromite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
