Engineered for maximum strength
MAXLOAD OPC — 53 Grade is a high-strength Ordinary Portland Cement engineered for structural applications, delivering reliable performance across residential, commercial, industrial, and infrastructure projects.
Best for
High-rise buildings
Industrial structures
Bridges and flyovers
RCC structures
MAXLOAD OPC — 53 Grade is a high-strength Ordinary Portland Cement engineered for structural applications, delivering reliable performance across residential, commercial, industrial, and infrastructure projects.
Why experts choose MAXLOAD OPC — 53 Grade
Built for heavy loads
With a 28-day compressive strength of 66 MPa, MAXLOAD OPC - 53 Grade is engineered for structures where load-bearing capacity is the primary design requirement.
Reduces construction time
High early strength development means project timelines can be shortened without compromising structural integrity, a critical advantage for time-bound infrastructure and commercial projects.
Consistent across batches
Manufactured under continuous quality monitoring and tested against Bureau of Indian Standards specifications, every batch of MAXLOAD OPC — 53 Grade delivers the same level of performance.
Proven in demanding applications
From high-rise buildings and industrial structures to pre-stressed concrete and infrastructure projects, MAXLOAD OPC — 53 Grade has a verified track record across most demanding construction environments.
Manufactured to exceed, not just meet the standard
MAXLOAD's actual test results consistently exceed IS 269:2015 requirements across physical, mechanical and chemical parameters, not by a narrow margin but by a measurable one.
Technical specifications
Physical properties
Parameter | What this measures | IS 269:2015 | Priya Cement |
|---|---|---|---|
Fineness - specific surface | How finely the cement is ground. Higher fineness means better reactivity and strength development. | Min. 225 m²/kg | 288 m²/kg |
Initial setting time | How long the cement remains workable after mixing with water. | Min. 30 minutes | 140 minutes |
Final setting time | How long before the cement becomes fully rigid and cannot be disturbed. | Max. 600 minutes | 220 minutes |
Le Chatelier expansion | Measures soundness, whether the cement expands excessively after setting, which can cause cracking. | Max. 10.0 mm | 1.0 mm |
Autoclave expansion | A more stringent test of soundness under high pressure and temperature. | Max. 0.8% | 0.067% |
Compressive strength
Curing period | IS 269:2015 minimum | Priya Cement test result |
|---|---|---|
3 days | Min. 27 MPa | 36 MPa |
7 days | Min. 37 MPa | 45 MPa |
28 days | Min. 53 MPa | 66 MPa |
Chemical properties
Parameter | What this measures | IS 269:2015 | Priya Cement |
|---|---|---|---|
Loss on ignition | Measures impurities that do not dissolve in acid, lower values indicate higher purity. | Max. 4.0% | 2.04% |
Insoluble residue | Measures impurities that do not dissolve in acid, lower values indicate higher purity. | Max. 5.0% | 4.04% |
Sulphuric anhydride | Controls sulphate content, which affects setting time and long-term durability. | Max. 3.5% | 1.77% |

Precautions
Take extra care in brickwork and plastering where low heat of hydration is required.
Use temperature control measures in mass concreting to prevent thermal cracking caused by high heat of hydration.
