Diamond Pro Air offers several benefits to both residential and commercial contractors:
- Lightweight Design: At only 54 lbs. per block, the Diamond Pro Air is easy to transport, handle, and install, reducing labor time. Additionally, teams can save shipping costs by fitting up to 25% more product per truckload.
- Versatile Applications: Ideal for retaining walls up to 12 feet in height, including gravity walls up to 3 feet 4 inches high, with the buried course.
- Efficient Locator System: The innovative front lug design produces a 9/16″ per unit setback, creating a consistent 4° batter for a near-vertical, professional finish every time.
- Reduced Cost: The lightweight blocks increase installation speed and minimize handling time, helping contractors complete projects faster and more cost-effectively.
- Optimize Land Usage: The Diamond Pro Air is perfect for curves, with a minimum outside radius of just 4 feet on the top course, and with its near vertical batter, it maximizes land use.
- Design Variety: The customer can choose from a variety of block sizes and face styles to fit the look and feel of the project. Plus, each block has a matching cap and corner to make finishing the look simple.
