Maple Red Granite Cobble Paving Setts Split Face, Sawn Edges

Other

Compared to full-cut, sawn-chopped paving stones from Lezniki granite have 4 sawn sides. The top and bottom of each cobbled stone has a natural chip – rock. Such paving stones are also called made from a pencil. The name was given by the technological process of production. Initially, blocks or rubble of Leznikovsky granite are sawn on large stone-cutting machines into slabs 10 cm thick. Then these slabs are transferred to multi-blade sawing machines with small saws. At the output, we get long stone blanks with a section of 100×100 mm, which are called pencils. After that, we split such “pencils” on a stone splitting press. Given that the press knives are more evenly attached to the sawn surface of the stone, the natural chipping of each paving stone is very even.

As a result, we have several advantages compared to full-cut paving stones:

• Sawn-split paving stone have a smoother chipped surface;
• The sides are perfectly even, which gives a straight seam line;
• Seams during installation are thinner and even.
