WMM & WBM Aggregate — Road Base Courses to MoRTH 404/406
Base-course aggregate for highways, bypasses, estate and village roads.
WMM / WBM சாலை ஜல்லி — MoRTH 404/406 தரம், நெடுஞ்சாலை மற்றும் கிராம சாலைகளுக்கு.
Buyers say WBM when they mean WMM and the other way round, so we supply both. Wet mix macadam is the modern base course on national and state highways: a 53 mm-down crusher-run blend, non-plastic, mixed with water in a pug mill and laid over GSB (typically 250 mm of WMM on 150–200 mm of GSB). Water bound macadam is the older base for village, PMGSY and estate roads: large single-size stone (Grading 2 = 63–45 mm, Grading 3 = 53–22.4 mm) laid in 75 mm layers and bound with screenings and water.
We produce the WMM blend to MoRTH Section 406 (53 mm down, LA abrasion ≤ 40%, combined flakiness + elongation ≤ 35%, non-plastic fines) and WBM coarse aggregate with Type A or B screenings to Section 404, with a gradation certificate per lot. Rock from the same Perindesam deposit carries a supervision-consultant source approval for WMM and bituminous works on the Chennai Peripheral Ring Road.
Where WMM / WBM Aggregate is used
- WMM base course on NH/SH packages, bypasses and CPRR sections
- WBM base for village roads, PMGSY, estate and layout roads
- Base for SIPCOT / industrial-park internal roads and truck yards
- Shoulders and hard standings

Produced to IS 383:2016 gradings (M-Sand Zone II, P-Sand to IS 1542, GSB/WMM to MoRTH Section 400). Gradation, silt, crushing value and flakiness are tested through accredited third-party laboratories; certificates accompany every bulk contract.
WMM / WBM Aggregate price per tonne
Our indicative ex-works rate for WMM / WBM Aggregate is ₹450 per MT at the Perindesam gate, excluding royalty, transport and 5% GST. That is ~₹2,160 per unit (100 cft ≈ 4.8 MT) or ~₹22 per cft, ex-works. Indicative ex-works (gate) rates, excluding royalty, transport and 5% GST; confirmed at the time of order.

WMM / WBM Aggregate delivered price by area
Delivered price (incl. 5% GST) = ex-works ₹450 per MT + the indicative transport for each area + 5% GST. Royalty and levies are itemised separately at actuals. 1 unit = 100 cft ≈ 4.8 MT of WMM / WBM Aggregate; a 10-wheeler carries about 18 MT. Each area links to its own WMM / WBM Aggregate price page.

We publish reviews from buyers who have taken delivery, in their own words, after our sales desk has confirmed the order. If you have ordered from us, yours could be the first.
WMM / WBM Aggregate — questions buyers ask
Should I order WMM or WBM?
If the pavement design is to MoRTH/IRC for a highway, bypass or estate road, it is WMM (53 mm down, laid over GSB). WBM is specified for village and low-volume roads and uses large single-size stone with screenings. Send the drawing and we match it.
What screenings go with WBM?
Type A (13.2 mm) with Grading 1, Type B (11.2 mm) with Grading 3, either with Grading 2; crusher dust is accepted where the fines meet plasticity limits.
