Aggregate Base Course, Commercial Grade, 1.75" Size

Aggregate Base Course in a 1.75" size range is a foundational construction material engineered for high-performance commercial applications. Produced by crushing and screening durable stone, this aggregate features a mix of angular particles that interlock for superior load-bearing capacity and stability. The commercial-grade specification ensures consistent quality and gradation, making it ideal for demanding projects.

The larger 1.75" size is particularly effective for creating a stable sub-base in heavy-duty settings such as roadways, parking lots, and industrial yards. Its coarse texture promotes excellent drainage while resisting compaction under heavy loads, reducing the risk of shifting or settling over time. While its size and angularity make it less suitable for decorative or fine-finish surfaces, it excels in structural support and long-term durability, making it a preferred choice for both contractors and engineers in commercial site development.
