Granite Screenings in #10 Size Range

Granite screenings in a #10 size range are finely crushed granite particles, typically less than 1/4" in diameter. Produced as a byproduct of crushing larger granite stones, these screenings have a gritty, sand-like texture that makes them ideal for a variety of construction and landscaping applications.

The #10 size ensures excellent compaction and stability, making granite screenings a popular choice for creating a solid base beneath pavers, flagstone patios, and walkways. Their fine texture fills gaps effectively, reducing movement and helping to prevent weed growth. Additionally, granite's natural durability and resistance to weathering make these screenings suitable for both residential and commercial projects. While their fine size offers superior compaction, it also means they are less effective for drainage compared to coarser aggregates. Overall, granite screenings in the #10 size range are valued for their stability, versatility, and clean finish in hardscape installations.
