Building Material in Tenkasi

Blue Metal and Construction Aggregates

TKR Building Materials supplies crushed granite aggregate, known locally as blue metal or jalli, in 6mm, 12mm, 20mm and 40mm sizes. Aggregate forms the bulk of any concrete mix and the base of roads and foundations, so consistent size and clean stone matter. We load from our Ilanji yard and deliver by tipper anywhere in Tenkasi district.

  • 6mm, 12mm, 20mm and 40mm sizes in stock
  • Clean, angular crushed granite for strong concrete
  • Mixed loads with M-Sand and cement on request
  • Bulk supply for road, compound wall and foundation work

Which aggregate size do you need?

20mm blue metal is the standard for RCC slabs, beams, columns and footings. 12mm is used for thinner sections, lintels, precast items and where reinforcement is dense. 6mm chips suit plastering base coats, concrete flooring and block production. 40mm aggregate is used for plain cement concrete beds, soling under foundations and road sub-base. If you are unsure, tell us the element you are casting and we will recommend the size.

Why aggregate quality affects your concrete

Flaky, dusty or poorly graded stone leaves voids and weak bonds in concrete. Our aggregate is crushed from hard granite, screened to size and kept free of soil, so it packs tightly and bonds well with cement paste. For bulk orders we can share quarry test reports.
