Screenings (3/8″)
Applications & Uses
Screenings in a 3/8" Size Range
Screenings in a 3/8" size range are finely crushed stone byproducts produced during the processing of larger aggregates. This material consists of small, angular particles that pass through a 3/8" screen, resulting in a compactable, granular texture ideal for a variety of construction applications.
The 3/8" size makes screenings particularly effective as a leveling base beneath pavers, bricks, and flagstone, providing excellent compaction and stability. Their fine texture also makes them suitable for use as a top dressing for pathways, walkways, and as a component in concrete mixes. While screenings offer superior compaction and a smooth finish, they may retain moisture and are less effective for drainage compared to coarser aggregates. This makes them a preferred choice for projects where a solid, stable base is required, but less ideal for areas needing rapid water runoff.
