Crushed Stone (1.5″, Crushed)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone, Crushed, 1.5" Size Range
Crushed stone in a 1.5" size range is a durable aggregate produced by mechanically breaking down larger rocks into angular fragments. The "crushed" attribute means each piece has sharp, irregular edges, which help the material lock together when compacted, providing excellent stability and load-bearing capacity.
The 1.5" size is ideal for applications requiring robust drainage and structural support. Its larger, angular pieces create voids that allow water to flow freely, making it a popular choice for drainage systems, septic fields, and as a base layer for roads, driveways, and parking lots. This size is also commonly used in erosion control and as a foundation for heavy-duty construction projects. While its angularity ensures minimal shifting under load, it can be harder to compact compared to smaller sizes and may not be suitable for surfaces requiring a smooth finish.
