Asphalt Aggregate (2″ Minus, Millings)
Applications & Uses
Asphalt Aggregate Millings, 2" Minus
Asphalt aggregate millings in a 2" minus size range are recycled materials produced by grinding up old asphalt pavement. This process creates a blend of particles, with the largest pieces measuring up to 2 inches and smaller fines mixed throughout. The millings retain some of the original asphalt binder, which helps them compact and bind together when installed.
The 2" minus sizing offers a balance between stability and compaction. Larger pieces provide structural strength, while the fines fill gaps for a tighter, more cohesive surface. This makes millings ideal for constructing or resurfacing driveways, parking lots, rural roads, and temporary construction access routes. They are also commonly used as a base layer beneath new asphalt or gravel. Pros include cost-effectiveness, good drainage, and environmental benefits from recycling. However, millings may not compact as smoothly as new asphalt and can be less suitable for high-traffic or decorative applications without additional treatment.
