Why SEK Surebond PolySweep Polymeric Sand?

Why Contractors Keep Buying The Same Sand

Most polymeric sand failures are install failures, not product failures, and they happen because the product punished a small mistake. PolySweep is formulated to be forgiving.

Description

Just Damn Good Sand, And SEK Means That Literally
PolySweep is SEK Surebond’s original polymeric sand formula, and the company markets it on exactly one promise: it works the same way every single time. No hazing, no tricky install window, no gimmick claims. For contractors whose reputation rides on every joint they sweep, boring and predictable is the entire point.

Why Contractors Keep Buying The Same Sand

Most polymeric sand failures are install failures, not product failures, and they happen because the product punished a small mistake. PolySweep is formulated to be forgiving. Its Clear Set technology is what keeps residue off the paver face, so the haze that ruins a finished patio is not something you have to sweep around.

  • Haze free. Clear Set technology means no white film left sitting on the paver surface after watering in.
  • Reduced dust. Less airborne dust while you sweep, which matters on an occupied job site.
  • Strength and longevity. The original time-tested formula, built for driveways and commercial traffic, not just patios.
  • Works on porcelain. Approved for concrete, clay and wet cast pavers, natural stone and porcelain tile.

Coverage Per 50 lb Bag

Coverage swings hard with joint width, and these are SEK’s published figures. Joint depth and paver texture move the real number, so buy a bag over rather than a bag short.

Standard pavers, joints up to 1/4 in 50 to 75 sq ft
Standard pavers, 1/4 in to 1/2 in 25 to 50 sq ft
Standard pavers, 1/2 in to 3/4 in 15 to 25 sq ft
Natural stone, joints up to 2 in 15 to 25 sq ft
Natural stone, 2 in to 4 in 25 to 35 sq ft

Where PolySweep Works

  • Concrete, clay and wet cast pavers
  • Natural stone and porcelain tile
  • Driveways, walkways and patios
  • Pool decks and concrete overlays
  • Residential and commercial installations

Where PolySweep Should Not Be Used, Straight From SEK

SEK is direct about the limits, and ignoring them is how a job goes wrong.

  • Not for vertical applications. This is a jointing sand, not a wall product.
  • Not a mortar substitute. It will not carry structural load.
  • Not on a wet or damp surface. The pavers and the joints must be completely dry before you sweep.
  • Do not mix it with other products. No additives, no blending with another brand of sand.

Install Window You Have To Respect

Two numbers decide whether this sand cures properly. The surface temperature has to stay above 35 F for a minimum of 48 hours after installation, and you need at least 12 hours with no rain. Cure can run 24 hours or considerably longer when it is cool and damp, so read the forecast before you open a bag.

Minimum temperature Above 35 F for 48 hours after install
Rain free window At least 12 hours
Cure time Up to 24 hours or longer in cool, damp conditions
Surface condition Completely dry before sweeping
Shelf life 24 months

Wider Joints Than 3/4 In?

PolySweep tops out at 3/4 in. If your joints run wider, SEK makes PolySweep X-Treme Wide Joint, which is rated to 4 in and uses the same Clear Set no haze technology. Flagstone, wide cut bluestone and irregular natural stone are what it exists for.

Questions about this product

Ask a question ›
How wide can the joints be?
The manufacturer rates this product for joints up to 3/4". 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?
4 options: Tan, Black, Pearl, Platinum. 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.
