Our quality silica sand produced consistently and cost-effectively, meets customer requirements
in the following applications:
            
Silica sand has become one of today's key strategic raw materials for the high-tech industries
Glass:
Our silica sand is processed to cover any of these industries:
1-Containers (bottles and jars)
2-Flat glass / Float glass (windows, mirrors, sheets, vehicle glazing, etc.)
3-Lighting glass (light bulbs, fluorescent tubes, etc.)
4-Tableware (lead crystal, drinking glasses, etc.)
5-TV tubes and screens
6-Decorative glass optical glass, etc. The glass fibers, mainly used for composite reinforcing or in decorative textiles, are made from fine ground silica flour
7-Others are available upon request
Foundry Casting:
Foundry Casting: EL HELAL FOR EXTERNAL TRADE CO. supplies different grades of round, angular and sub-angular sands to the foundry industry for molding and core-making applications. Because of the sand's high silica levels and our ability to meet a wide range of specifications, our customers in the foundry industry can produce high integrity castings, free of defects and with superior surface finishes.
Crystalline silica has a higher melting point than iron, copper and aluminum. This enables castings to be produced by pouring molten metal into molds made out of silica sand and a binder. Castings form the basis of the engineering and manufacturing industries. Quartz and silica flours are the main components in investment casting (also called precision casting) for the production of specialist products such as jewelry, dental bridges, aviation turbines and golf clubs
Ceramics:
Ceramics: Typical everyday products such as tableware, Sanitary ware, ornaments and wall and floor tiles but also high tech ceramics contain silica flour that has been ground to fine sizes to form a major constituent of ceramic glazes. Crystalline silica is a main component in the production of refractory bricks, ladle linings and fluxes.
Building Applications:
Building Applications: Screened building silica sand is the foundation in the construction industry. EL HELAL FOR EXTERNAL TRADE CO. produces sand with consistent color and grading that can be utilized in a series of applications including silica and aerated concrete blocks, flooring and rendering compounds, floor and roof tiles, roofing felt, white line markings and cement and resin injection systems.
Abrasives:
Abrasives: EL HELAL FOR EXTERNAL TRADE CO. offers angular or round graded sand that is used as an abrasive in many industrial processes such as sandblasting.
Sports and Leisure:
Golf Sands: Silica sand has become an increasingly important component in sports applications, such as golf courses and pitches. Closely graded silica sand provided by EL HELAL FOR EXTERNAL TRADE CO. can be applied for sports surface constructions.
Silica sand is used for equestrian surfaces, including the production of all weather horse racing tracks. It is also used in the production of root zones and drainage media for high specification football and other sports pitches and for golf courses.
Pool Filters:
Pool Filters: Closely graded, angular, and white-in-color silica sand is the main element used for water filtration. EL HELAL FOR EXTERNAL TRADE CO. screens sand to meet the strict specifications required for water treatment and sand filters.
Oil field application
Special grades of silica sand that are of coarse size and have spherical particles are pumped down oil wells and into the oil-bearing strata to improve permeability and the flow of oil into the well.
Agriculture
Silica is used in farming, market gardening, horticulture and forestry in applications such as soil conditioner or carrier for fertilizer and animal feed additives.
Chemicals
silica sand and high purity quartz are used to produce a range of silicon chemicals including sodium silicate, silica gel, silicones, silicon tetrachloride, silanes and pure silicon. Pure silicon is used for silicon chips, the heart of the computer world. Silicon products are used in the production of detergents, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.
metallurgical Industry
Quartz is the raw material for the production of silicon metal and ferrosilicon. Silicon metal is used in the production of alloys based on aluminum, copper and nickel. Ferrosilicon is a major alloying ingredient for iron and steel. metal ores are purified in the furnace by silica sand that is transformed into metal slag.
Blasting
We Silica is used for sand blasting purposes, as micro blaster, for micro graving, for filter sand, as glass beads for sand blasting, as paint stripping blasting sand.
