Crushed Stone Gabion in 8" Size Range

Crushed stone gabion in an 8" size range is a large, angular aggregate specifically produced for use in gabion baskets and similar structural applications. This material is created by mechanically crushing larger rocks, resulting in irregular, angular pieces that interlock well when placed together. The 8" size ensures that the stones are substantial enough to remain securely contained within wire mesh baskets, providing both mass and stability.

The large, angular nature of this gabion stone makes it ideal for erosion control, retaining walls, and slope stabilization in both residential and commercial projects. Its size and shape allow for excellent drainage while preventing soil migration, making it a preferred choice for riverbank reinforcement, bridge abutments, and landscape features. While the large size offers superior structural integrity and resistance to displacement, it is not suitable for compacted surfaces or areas requiring a smooth finish. Overall, 8" gabion crushed stone is valued for its durability, stability, and effectiveness in heavy-duty containment and erosion control applications.
