Heavy concrete for making counterweights

When you are looking to design a consistent counterweight selecting MagnaDense as the high density material is the right choice. We are able to supply a range of MagnaDense products to match your requirements.

MagnaDense in concrete can provide a density of typically 4.0 t/m³. When mixed with other iron-based materials, concrete including MagnaDense can achieve a density up to 5.0 t/m³.
