|---|
| King Size | 4.80 | | Builders Special | 5.33 | | Modular | 6.85 | | Colonial | 4.90 | | Queen Size | 5.20 |
Why did I find broken units in our brick that just got delivered?
ASTM standards for the brick industry allow for up to 5% breakage. The price quoted by your sales rep calculates a certain loss factor before you even receive the material. In many cases, the broken brick can be used around doors and windows where brick of less than full length are needed.
