Crushed Stone, Washed, Ca-70, 3/8" Size

Crushed stone in a 3/8" size range, washed and graded as Ca-70, is a versatile aggregate ideal for a variety of construction and landscaping projects. This material is produced by mechanically crushing larger rocks, then washing to remove fines and dust, resulting in clean, angular particles. The Ca-70 specification ensures consistent sizing and quality, making it reliable for precise applications.

The 3/8" size offers excellent compaction while still allowing for adequate drainage, making it suitable for use as a base layer beneath pavers, patios, and walkways. Its washed attribute minimizes dust, which is beneficial for indoor or sensitive environments and helps prevent compaction issues caused by excess fines. Common uses include residential driveways, concrete mixes, bedding for pipes, and as a decorative ground cover. The main advantage of this material is its clean, uniform appearance and reduced dust, though it may be less suitable for applications requiring larger stone for maximum drainage.
