Crushed Stone, Washed Ca-3, 2" Size

Washed Ca-3 crushed stone in a 2" size range is a durable aggregate produced by mechanically crushing and screening natural rock, then thoroughly washing it to remove fines and dust. The "Ca-3" designation refers to a specific gradation commonly used in heavy-duty construction, while the washing process ensures a cleaner, more consistent product.

The 2" size provides excellent load-bearing capacity and superior drainage, making it ideal for large-scale commercial and infrastructure projects such as road base, railroad ballast, and erosion control. The washed attribute reduces dust and debris, improving worksite cleanliness and minimizing compaction issues. While its large, angular particles are not suitable for decorative or compacted surfaces, this material excels in applications where stability and drainage are critical.
