100% Natural Quartzite Grit for Winter Traction
©TCC MATERIALS • February 2014 Version 1.2
Cherry Stone Traction Grit
Product Description
Cherry Stone
®
Traction Grit is a fine,
sharp, crushed rock which offers natural
relief from the icy conditions of winter.
Unlike salt, our 100% natural quartzite
pebbles give you immediate traction on
icy walks, steps, and driveways without
hastening the deterioration of concrete
surfaces. Cherry Stone grit will not
dissolve or become muddy like softer
limestone grits and is non-polluting and
non-staining. Simply sweep up in the
spring. Also keep in your vehicle to use
for both additional winter weight and
emergency traction. Cherry Stone grit is
also used for hobby crafts, aquariums,
and flower pot drainage.
