Rustenburg notes on machines & equipment
Rustenburg has plenty of first-time brick makers, often with an egg-laying machine and a slab behind a house in Boitekong or Marikana. Ask the supplier about output with your mould and crew, single or three phase power, and diesel options for sites with no electricity. Second hand machines change hands often; check the mould for wear and the vibrator motor before paying.
Bricks, blocks and brick making in Rustenburg
Platinum mining drives Rustenburg's building, from mine villages and housing projects to the many backyard rentals built for mine workers in Boitekong, Phokeng and Tlhabane. Cement bricks and blocks do most of the work, made by small yards across the townships and by bigger block yards in the industrial areas. Some machine operators on the platinum belt move from one housing project to the next. Older suburbs such as Safari Gardens and Cashan see extensions and boundary walls, and farms toward Kroondal need sheds and staff houses. The Magaliesberg brings hot summers with sharp afternoon storms and cold, dry winters, so fresh bricks need shade, water and cover in every season.
Typical block making machines requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: making hollow blocks for a long boundary wall or a garage at home
- Builders and bricklaying contractors: blocks made on site for boundary walls, outbuildings and quick structural walls
- New brick-making businesses: a small block machine selling 140 mm blocks to local builders and homeowners
