Asphalt Aggregate (3/8″ Minus, Asphalt)

Asphalt Aggregate, 3/8” Minus, Asphalt Grade

Asphalt aggregate in a 3/8" minus size range is a finely graded material specifically engineered for use in asphalt paving and repair. This aggregate is produced by crushing and screening high-quality stone to ensure particles are no larger than 3/8", with a blend of smaller sizes and fines. The "asphalt" attribute indicates that the material meets stringent specifications for use in hot mix asphalt, ensuring optimal binding and durability.




The 3/8" minus sizing is crucial for creating a dense, smooth surface that compacts well, reducing voids and enhancing load-bearing capacity. This makes it ideal for residential driveways, commercial parking lots, roadways, and patching projects. The fine gradation allows for excellent workability and a finished surface that resists rutting and water infiltration. While the high fines content aids compaction, it may reduce drainage compared to coarser aggregates. Overall, this material is valued for its stability, ease of installation, and suitability for both new construction and resurfacing applications.
