#1A Stone (1/4″ To 3/4″)
Applications & Uses
#1A Stone in a 1/4" to 3/4" Size Range
#1A stone in a 1/4" to 3/4" size range is a crushed aggregate commonly produced from durable natural rock such as limestone, granite, or trap rock. The material is mechanically crushed and screened to achieve its consistent, small particle size, making it ideal for projects that require a stable yet permeable base.
The 1/4" to 3/4" size range offers a balance between compaction and drainage. Its smaller particles fill gaps effectively, creating a smooth, stable surface, while still allowing water to pass through-reducing the risk of pooling or erosion. #1A stone is frequently used for bedding pipes, underlayment for patios and walkways, and as a top dressing for driveways. It is also suitable for use in drainage systems and as a base for pavers. While its fine size makes it easy to level and compact, it may not be ideal for heavy load-bearing applications where larger aggregate is preferred.
