Crushed Stone (#4 To 3/4″, Round, Washed)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone - Round, Washed, #4 to 3/4"
Crushed stone in a #4 to 3/4" size range, featuring a round and washed attribute, is a versatile aggregate ideal for a variety of construction and landscaping projects. The round shape results from natural weathering or mechanical tumbling, while the washing process removes dust, clay, and fine particles, leaving a clean, smooth surface.
The #4 to 3/4" size offers a balance between stability and drainage, making this material especially suitable for drainage systems, French drains, septic system bedding, and as a base layer for patios and walkways. The round, washed stones are less likely to compact tightly, promoting excellent water flow and reducing the risk of clogging. This makes them a preferred choice for applications where drainage is critical. However, the round shape can make the material less stable under heavy loads compared to angular stone, so it may not be ideal for high-traffic driveways or structural base layers. Overall, this aggregate is valued for its clean appearance, reduced dust, and superior drainage properties.
