#9 Stone in a #16 to #4 Size Range

#9 stone in a #16 to #4 size range is a finely crushed aggregate, typically produced from high-quality limestone or granite. The particles are small, ranging from about 1/16 inch (#16 sieve) up to 1/4 inch (#4 sieve), resulting in a material that is nearly gravel-sized but much finer than standard driveway stone.

This specific size range offers excellent compaction and a smooth finish, making it ideal for use as a leveling base beneath pavers, patios, and walkways. Its fine texture also makes it suitable for use in asphalt mixes, as pipe bedding, or as a top dressing for driveways and pathways. The small particle size allows for tight packing, reducing voids and providing a stable, even surface. However, because it compacts so well, it may not be the best choice for drainage applications where water flow is needed. Overall, #9 stone in this size range is valued for its versatility, ease of installation, and ability to create a solid, smooth foundation for a variety of residential and commercial projects.
