Crushed Stone (#200 To 1/2″)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone in #200 to 1/2" Size Range
Crushed stone in the #200 to 1/2" size range is a versatile aggregate produced by mechanically breaking down larger rocks into angular fragments. This gradation includes very fine particles (as small as #200 sieve, or 0.075 mm) up to 1/2 inch pieces, resulting in a well-graded material with a mix of fines and small stones.
The combination of fine and coarse particles makes this crushed stone ideal for applications requiring excellent compaction and stability. It is commonly used as a base material for driveways, walkways, patios, and under concrete slabs, where a solid, stable foundation is essential. The presence of fines helps fill voids, reducing movement and providing a smoother, more even surface. However, the high fines content can limit drainage, making it less suitable for areas where water needs to flow freely. Overall, this size range is valued for its compaction properties and versatility in both residential and commercial construction projects.
