Crushed Stone in a 1.5" to 3" Size Range

Crushed stone in the 1.5" to 3" size range is a durable aggregate produced by mechanically breaking down larger rocks into angular fragments. This material is known for its strength and stability, making it a reliable choice for heavy-duty construction needs.

The larger size range of 1.5" to 3" is particularly effective for applications requiring excellent drainage and load-bearing capacity. Its angular shape helps lock the stones together, reducing movement and providing a stable base. Common uses include erosion control, base layers for roads and driveways, railroad ballast, and large-scale drainage projects. While its size makes it less suitable for compacting or decorative surfacing, it excels in structural and drainage roles where smaller aggregates might shift or wash away.
