Squeegee (#16 To 3/8″)
Applications & Uses
Squeegee in a #16 to 3/8" size range is a finely graded aggregate commonly produced from crushed stone or natural river rock. This material features particles that are larger than sand but smaller than typical gravel, offering a unique blend of smoothness and stability.
The #16 to 3/8" size range provides excellent compaction while maintaining good drainage properties. Its fine texture makes it ideal for use as a bedding layer under pavers, in playgrounds, or as a joint filler for flagstone patios. Squeegee is also popular for walkways, dog runs, and as a base for artificial turf, where its small, consistent size helps create a level, stable surface.
Because of its fine gradation, squeegee is easy to spread and less likely to shift underfoot compared to larger aggregates. However, it may not be suitable for heavy load-bearing applications or areas requiring significant drainage, as its compact nature can limit water flow. Overall, squeegee in this size range is valued for its versatility, smooth finish, and ease of installation in both residential and commercial landscaping projects.
