GATOR XTREME EDGE is the ultimate 3D reinforced micro-fiber mesh and polymer modified structural edge, which creates a strong and economical edging solution for any hardscape project. GATOR XTREME EDGE can be used on any traditional, permeable, Gator Base, or overlay application using concrete pavers and slabs or natural and wet cast stones. GATOR XTREME EDGE offers permanent continuous lateral support.
Gator Xtreme Edge vs Concrete Mix
One bag of GATOR XTREME EDGE will be covering approximately 15 li. ft. (4.5 li. m.) of edging.

Store outdoors under a covered area, protected from rain and snow or store indoors in a well ventilated area at temperatures ranging from -40 to 104°F (-40 to 40°C). Skid of GATOR XTREME EDGE can be double stacked for storage, but not in transport.
Using ICPI established best practices from ICPI Tech Spec 2 and ICPI Tech Spec 10, you will ensure the require base, setting bed and drainage of your hardscape project.
Always refer to the latest GATOR XTREME EDGE Technical Data Sheet (TDS) at AllianceGator.com before installing GATOR XTREME EDGE. Concrete pavers, slabs, Natural and Wet cast stones should be installed according to ICPI Tech Spec 2 and for overlay application ICPI Tech Spec 10, utilizing industry established best practices for the base, setting bed, and drainage of a hardscape project.
Using a trowel, remove all excess sand/aggregate bedding along the project pavers to a width of 10 cm (4”) and under the pavers 13 to 25 mm (1/2” to 1”) of the bedding of the hardscape project. (see Traditional, open graded or permeable application on previous page). The GATOR XTREME EDGE will be laid on a strong structural foundation.
For a Gator Base installation, cut the Gator Base flush with the edge of the hardscape project and remove approximately 4″ (10 cm) wide by 1″ (25 mm) deep in the native soils along the edge (see Gator Base cross section diagram on previous page).
Mix 1/2 US gallon (1.9 liters) of water with one bag 50 lb (22.7 kg) of GATOR XTREME EDGE until you obtain a homogeneous mixture.
Create a triangular shaped wedge of GATOR XTREME EDGE against the side of the pavement. With the help of a trowel spread approximately 4″ (10 cm) of GATOR XTREME EDGE mixture at a 30° angle over the base material (Photo 1) or native soil in a Gator Base application (Photo 2). Ensure that the GATOR XTREME EDGE covers any void spaces and at least 1″ (25 mm) of the vertical side of the paver or 1/2 the height of the hardscaping material being used. One bag of GATOR XTREME EDGE edging will cover approximately 4.5 m (15 ft) of edging and for Gator Base application approximately 3.7 m (12 ft).
Final compaction of the paved surface with the G2 sand should take place while the GATOR XTREME EDGE is still curing. As with Gator Nitro or Gator Nitro-X sands the paved surface should be applied only 90 minutes after GATOR XTREME EDGE installation.
