#5 Stone (1/2″ To 3/4″)
Applications & Uses
#5 Stone in a 1/2" to 3/4" Size Range
#5 stone is a crushed aggregate typically produced from durable materials such as granite, limestone, or trap rock. The 1/2" to 3/4" size range offers a versatile balance between compaction and drainage, making it a popular choice for a variety of construction and landscaping projects.
This mid-sized aggregate is ideal for use as a base material under concrete slabs, driveways, and patios, where its angular shape helps lock pieces together for stability while still allowing water to drain through. It is also commonly used in drainage systems, septic fields, and as a bedding layer for pavers. The size is large enough to resist displacement under load but small enough to provide good coverage and compaction. While #5 stone is not as decorative as smaller gravels, its performance and versatility make it a reliable choice for both residential and commercial applications.
