Crushed Stone (1.25″ Minus)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone in a 1.25" Minus Size Range
Crushed stone in a 1.25" minus size range is a versatile aggregate produced by mechanically breaking down larger rocks into angular fragments, with the largest pieces measuring up to 1.25 inches and smaller particles, including fines, filling the gaps. This gradation ensures a well-compacting material that locks together tightly when installed.
The 1.25" minus size is ideal for applications where stability and compaction are essential, such as base layers for driveways, roadways, parking lots, and heavy-use pathways. The presence of fines helps the material bind, reducing voids and creating a solid foundation that resists shifting and settling. While this makes it less suitable for drainage-focused projects, it excels in load-bearing and high-traffic areas. Both homeowners and contractors appreciate its durability and ease of installation for foundational work.
