Everything you need to know about Hanson Castle Cement 25kg
Description
Planning Bags for Your Job
This is a single 25kg bag of Hanson Castle grey cement. Most jobs need several, so work out the total before you order and buy them together. The Castle grey cement page covers mix ratios and uses in more detail.
| Job | Bags before waste | Bags with 10% added for waste (rounded up) |
|---|---|---|
| Six fence posts, holes 300mm square x 600mm deep (1:2:4 concrete) | about 4.2 | 5 |
| Concrete path 5m x 1m, 75mm thick (1:2:4) | about 4.9 | 6 |
| Floor screed 3m x 3m, 65mm thick (4:1 sand and cement) | about 9.9 | 11 |
| Blockwork wall, 400 standard 100mm blocks (1:4 mortar, allowing about 60 blocks per 25kg bag of cement) | about 6.7 | 8 |
Worked on about 13 bags per m³ for 1:2:4 concrete and about 17 bags per m³ for a 4:1 screed. Published guidance for blockwork mortar varies, so we've used the cautious end of the range (about 60 blocks per 25kg bag of cement at 1:4); if the cement bag gives its own coverage, use that. These are general guidance figures, not measured for this product.
Mixing Tips
- Measure by the same bucket every time so each batch matches.
- Mix the dry materials together first, then add water a little at a time.
- For more than about half a bag at a time, a cement mixer saves effort and gives a more even mix.
- Wear gloves, eye protection and long sleeves: wet cement can burn skin.
Handling 25kg Bags
- Lift with your legs, keeping the bag close to your body, or share the load.
- Keep unopened bags dry, off the ground and covered until you need them.
