#1 Stone (1.5″ To 3.5″, Dry)
Applications & Uses
#1 Stone, Dry, 1.5" to 3.5"
#1 stone in a dry, 1.5" to 3.5" size range is a large, coarse aggregate commonly produced from crushed natural rock such as granite, limestone, or trap rock. The "dry" attribute means the material is supplied without added moisture, making it lighter and easier to handle for certain applications.
The substantial size of #1 stone makes it ideal for heavy-duty drainage projects, erosion control, and as a base layer for large-scale construction such as roadways, retaining walls, and septic system installations. Its large, irregular pieces create excellent void spaces, promoting superior water flow and reducing the risk of clogging. However, due to its size, #1 stone is not suitable for compacted surfaces or areas requiring a smooth finish. It is less decorative but excels in structural and drainage roles, making it a reliable choice for both residential and commercial projects where stability and water management are priorities.
