Asphalt Aggregate (3/8″)
Applications & Uses
3/8" Asphalt Aggregate
3/8" asphalt aggregate is a crushed stone material specifically sized for use in asphalt mixes. Produced by crushing and screening durable rock, this aggregate features a consistent 3/8-inch size, which is ideal for creating smooth, stable surfaces in paving applications.
The 3/8" size is crucial for achieving a dense, well-compacted asphalt layer, ensuring optimal load distribution and resistance to rutting. Its small, uniform particles allow for tight packing, resulting in a smoother finish and improved durability. This aggregate is commonly used in residential driveways, commercial parking lots, roadways, and pathways. Its size also makes it suitable for patching and resurfacing projects where a finer, more workable material is needed. While the smaller size enhances compaction and finish, it may not be suitable for base layers requiring larger stone for drainage.
