Strength of Purple Agate Stone Tiles

The strength of a purple agate stone tile refers to its ability to resist failure. Under external force, the stone will fail when the internal stress reaches a certain limit—this defines the strength of the tile.

The thickness of the tile plays a crucial role in its compressive ability:

• Thinner tiles have weaker compressive strength and are more prone to damage.
• Thicker tiles have greater compressive strength and are less likely to break.

As a result, the compressive strength of the stone is directly related to its thickness:

✅ Thin plate → Poor compressive ability → Easily breaks
✅ Thick plate → Strong compressive ability → Less prone to damage

The Trend of Thinner Slabs

It has become a growing trend among stone merchants to produce thinner slabs. In large slab markets like Shuitou, slabs under 16mm thickness are commonly seen.

Merchants dealing with high-quality and expensive stone often prefer thinner slabs because thicker slabs increase costs, raising prices and potentially reducing sales.

By making slabs thinner, merchants lower prices, making them more appealing to customers—creating a mutually beneficial solution for both sellers and buyers.
