Crushed Stone (4″ To 8″, Limestone)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone (Limestone), 4" to 8"
Crushed stone in the 4" to 8" size range, made from durable limestone, is a heavy-duty aggregate ideal for demanding construction and landscaping applications. Produced by mechanically crushing larger limestone rocks, this material features angular edges that interlock well, providing excellent stability and load-bearing capacity.
The large 4" to 8" size makes this limestone aggregate particularly effective for erosion control, retaining wall backfill, and as a base for large drainage projects such as culverts and French drains. Its substantial size allows for superior water flow and prevents soil migration, making it a top choice for commercial drainage systems and shoreline protection. While its size and angularity offer structural benefits, it is not suitable for compacted surfaces or decorative top layers. This material is best used where strength, drainage, and long-term durability are priorities.
