16 Grit Infill
50 lb bag #16 grit silica sand
#16 grit silica sand in 50 lb bags, the standard ballast infill for synthetic turf. It weighs the turf down, holds the blades upright and shields the backing from sun. Plan 1 to 2 lb per sq ft depending on pile height, so one bag covers roughly 25 to 50 sq ft.

Where 16 Grit Infill Fits
- Ballast infill for residential and commercial landscape turf
- Base layer under a zeolite top layer in pet relief areas
- Yearly top-ups on high-traffic areas where blades start to lay flat

Installed performance depends on base preparation, compaction, drainage design, seaming, fastening, infill selection where applicable, site conditions, subsurface drainage, traffic, weather, and maintenance — none of which is supplied or controlled by Superior. Read the full disclaimer.
