Asphalt Aggregate (5/8″, Chip)
Applications & Uses
5/8" Chip Asphalt Aggregate
5/8" chip asphalt aggregate is a crushed stone material specifically sized for use in asphalt production and surface treatments. Produced by mechanically crushing and screening durable rock, these chips feature angular edges that promote strong interlock and stability within asphalt mixes.
The 5/8" size is ideal for creating a textured, skid-resistant surface, making it a preferred choice for roadways, parking lots, and driveways. Its chip attribute ensures excellent compaction and bonding with asphalt binders, resulting in a durable, long-lasting pavement. This aggregate size also allows for efficient drainage while maintaining structural integrity. While its angular shape enhances grip and load distribution, it may be less suitable for decorative or barefoot applications due to its rough texture. Overall, 5/8" chip asphalt aggregate is valued for its performance in both residential and commercial paving projects.
