Screenings - Natural, Screened, 5/8" Size

Screenings in a 5/8" size range are finely crushed stone particles produced as a byproduct of the aggregate screening process. This material is natural and screened, meaning it retains its original mineral composition and is carefully sorted to ensure consistent particle size. The 5/8" size offers a balance between fine texture and structural stability, making it versatile for a range of construction and landscaping applications.

The natural, screened attribute ensures minimal dust and debris, resulting in a cleaner, more uniform product that is easy to work with. Screenings of this size are commonly used as a base layer for pavers, patios, and walkways, providing excellent compaction and a stable foundation. They are also suitable for filling joints between stones, leveling surfaces, and as a bedding material for flagstone or brick installations. While screenings compact well and create a smooth finish, they may not provide optimal drainage compared to larger aggregates, making them best suited for areas where water runoff is controlled.
