#12 Stone in a 5/16” Size Range
#12 stone in a 5/16" size range is a finely crushed aggregate commonly produced from durable natural rock sources such as granite, limestone, or gravel. The material is screened to achieve a consistent particle size, making it ideal for applications where a smaller, uniform aggregate is required.
The 5/16" size offers a balance between fine and coarse aggregates, providing good compaction while still allowing for adequate drainage. This makes #12 stone particularly suitable for use as a bedding layer under pavers, in asphalt mixes, or as a component in concrete production. It is also frequently used for walkways, driveways, and as a base for patios, where its smaller size helps create a smooth, stable surface.
The main advantage of this size is its versatility and ease of handling, making it a popular choice for both residential and commercial projects. However, because it is finer than larger aggregates, it may not be ideal for heavy load-bearing applications or areas requiring maximum drainage.Applications & Uses
