Description
The Hardwicke Minster Beckstone brick is a high-quality, wire-cut facing unit that brings a warm, buff-multitone character to any elevation. Each brick measures the UK standard 215 × 102.5 × 65 mm and features a light, drag-faced texture that softly catches and diffuses daylight, highlighting mortar joints with a subtle, handcrafted appeal. Internally perforated cores reduce the dry weight to around 2.1 kg per unit—making handling on site easier—while also improving the wall’s thermal and acoustic performance and providing an excellent mechanical key for mortar.
Manufactured from dense clay, these bricks achieve a mean compressive strength of approximately 40 N/mm² and have a water absorption rate of around 16 percent, offering moderate frost resistance suited to exposed UK climates. Precision extrusion and wire-cutting ensure razor-sharp edges and tight dimensional tolerances, which minimize on-site cutting waste and speed up installation. Supplied in packs of 475 units, the Hardwicke Minster Beckstone brick combines enduring structural integrity with a softly variegated appearance—ideal for everything from full facades and boundary walls to feature piers and garden enclosures—maturing gracefully over time.
