#2 Stone (3/4″)
Applications & Uses
#2 Stone in a 3/4" Size Range
#2 stone in a 3/4" size range is a versatile crushed aggregate commonly produced from durable natural rock such as limestone, granite, or gravel. The material is processed through mechanical crushing and screening to achieve a consistent 3/4" particle size, making it ideal for a variety of construction and landscaping applications.
The 3/4" size strikes a balance between stability and drainage. It is large enough to provide excellent load-bearing support for base layers in driveways, parking lots, and road construction, yet small enough to allow for effective compaction and minimal voids. This size also promotes good drainage, making it suitable for use in French drains, septic system leach fields, and as a backfill material around foundations. While #2 stone is not typically used for decorative purposes due to its size and angularity, its strength and reliability make it a top choice for structural and utility projects. Note that, because of its size, it may be more challenging to achieve a perfectly smooth finish compared to finer aggregates.
