Product Overview
Durable clay facing brick for external walling. Suitable for housing and commercial builds. Red multi finish with subtle colour variations for authentic charm.
Clay facing unit for external and internal masonry where a durable, colour-stable appearance is required. Fired body gives long-term weathering resistance and consistent appearance in elevation.
Standard UK format coordinates efficiently with 10mm mortar joints for rapid coursing and clean bond lines. Compatible with common bonds and detailing including reveals, plinths, and returns.
Suitable for use as an outer leaf in cavity wall construction, freestanding walls and architectural features when specified to the project exposure class.
Features & Benefits
- Durable fired clay body: Inherent weathering resistance and colour stability for long service life in exposed conditions.
- Consistent UK work size: Coordinates with 10mm joints for accurate gauging, bond alignment and efficient setting-out.
- Versatile application: Suitable for outer leaf, internal feature walls and freestanding walls when detailed to standard practice.
- Compatibility with standard mortars: Works with designed or prescribed mortars in accordance with BS EN 998-2; select strength and workability for site conditions.
- Fire performance: Non-combustible clay unit appropriate for use on buildings of any height, subject to system specification.
- Size (work size): 215mm x 65mm provides 225mm course heights at 10mm joints and aligns with standard lintels, ties and accessories.
Applications

Installation Guidance

How delivery works
We work with a nationwide network of trusted suppliers. Items in your basket may be supplied by different suppliers and delivered separately. Where this applies, you will see delivery charges shown at checkout for each part of your order. We always aim to group products from the same supplier to keep delivery costs as low as possible.
Delivery areas
Delivery charges apply to mainland UK, excluding: AB, CA, CF, DD, DG, EH, EX, FK, KA, KW, KY, IV, LA, LD, LL, ML, NP, PA, PH, PL, SA, SY, TR, TQ and TD.
If your address is in one of these areas, we will contact you before processing your order to confirm any additional costs. We do not currently offer delivery outside the UK mainland.
What to expect on delivery day
- Deliveries are typically kerbside.
- Please ensure someone is on-site to accept delivery. For heavier items, help with offloading may be required.
- Many building materials arrive on large vehicles. If access is restricted, a specialist vehicle such as a HIAB may be required and could incur an additional charge.
Why delivery can cost more than typical parcel delivery
Building materials often travel on larger vehicles and usually carry fewer drops per run than parcel networks. That is why delivery charges can be higher than standard e-commerce shipping.
Returns
Returns depend on what you have bought and whether there is anything wrong with it. For full details on eligibility, timeframes, and exclusions, please see our full policy.
