Why Gator Super Sand Bond?

Polymeric Sand for Tight Paver Joints Up to 1 Inch

Most paver patios and walkways have joints under an inch. Super Sand Bond is the polymeric sand built for exactly that range, and it is the value pick when you do not need the wide-joint grades.

Where Gator Super Sand Bond Works

Alliance recommends Super Sand Bond for residential, traditional-base installations:

  • Paver patios and walkways
  • Driveways and parking spaces
  • Pool surrounds and pool decks
  • Sloping areas and footpaths
  • Concrete pavers and wet cast products
  • Clay pavers only if 100 percent dry, and only after a test area

Where Gator Super Sand Bond Should NOT Be Used (Straight From the Manufacturer)

Residential use only, and traditional base only. Alliance states never to use Super Sand Bond where pavers are installed over a concrete slab. For an overlay you need Gator Maxx G2 or Gator Maxx Sand instead.

Do not apply if the paver surface or the joints are damp or wet. Everything must be 100 percent dry.

Do not sweep it over asphalt. Do not apply on aggregates with large voids.

Pavers must be fully interlocked before you sand. Pool coping units must be mortared, not sanded.

Joints must be filled to at least 1/8 in below the paver surface or chamfer, and cured joints should never sit in direct contact with foot traffic or tires.

Not sure if your project qualifies? Call us at (856) 418-4895 before you order. We will give you a straight answer, even if the answer is that this is not the right product for your job.

How to Install Gator Super Sand Bond

The full step by step guide is in the official documentation below. Here is the shape of the job:

  1. Spread with a hard-bristle broom and fill the joints completely, leaving a layer on the surface to help it vibrate in.
  2. Vibrate with a plate compactor and a rubber pad, level to at least 1/8 in below the surface or chamfer, then top up and repeat.
  3. Sweep clean, hard broom then soft, and leaf-blow every last grain off the paver faces.
  4. Water three times. Shower 100 sq ft, wait 2 to 3 minutes, shower and rinse again, wait, then a third pass until the joints hold water. Start at the lowest point.

Super Sand Bond uses the classic three-pass watering method. If you want the faster single-watering install, look at Super Sand G2.

Super Sand Bond vs Super Sand G2 vs Maxx G2

All three are Alliance polymeric sands that install into paver joints. What separates them is joint width, application type and how you water them in.

  • Super Sand Bond, joints to 1 in, residential, traditional base only, three waterings, rain safe in 1 hour.
  • Super Sand G2, joints to 2 in, residential and commercial, traditional base only, one watering, rain safe in 15 minutes.
  • Gator Maxx Sand, joints to 2 in, and the one rated for overlay work over a concrete slab.
  • Gator Maxx G2, joints to 4 in, traditional or overlay, one watering, rain safe in 15 minutes.

Questions about this product

Ask a question ›
How wide can the joints be?
The manufacturer rates this product for joints up to 1". Measure the widest joint on the job, not the average; if it is wider than that, pick a sand rated for wider joints or use the project finder.
How many bags do I need?
Coverage depends on paver size, joint width and joint depth, so a bag count from a square-foot number alone can be off by half. The coverage calculator uses this product's own data sheet figures: enter your area, paver size and joint width and it gives you the bag count.
Which colors does it come in?
2 options: Beige, Slate Gray. Screens shift color, so check a color sample against your own pavers before ordering full bags if the shade matters.
What sizes are available?
Size: 50 lb. The price shown is per 50 lb unless you pick another option.
When will it ship?
In-stock orders placed before 2:00 PM Eastern on a weekday ship the same day from our Williamstown, New Jersey warehouse by UPS or FedEx Ground. The cut-off is when the carriers start arriving; order after it, or on a weekend, and it ships the next business day. Just missed it? Call (856) 418-4895: if the carrier has not picked up yet we do our best to get it out the same day. The box above the Add to cart button shows the live countdown and an arrival estimate for your ZIP. Phones are answered 24/7; the warehouse itself is open for pick-ups and returns Monday to Friday 8 to 5 and Saturday 8 to noon, Eastern. For a pick-up, call first so we can pull your order.
Can I buy by the pallet?
Yes. Full pallets ship by freight truck, so we price the delivery for your address instead of guessing. Request a pallet quote or call (856) 418-4895 and we will call you back with a delivered price.
Where are the technical and safety data sheets?
The manufacturers' technical and safety data sheets are collected in the TDS and SDS library. Coverage, cure time and application temperatures on this page come from those sheets.
Is contractor or bulk pricing available?
No. One price for everyone: the price on the page is what contractors, landscapers and homeowners all pay. For full pallets, request a pallet quote and we will price the freight to your address.
