#1A Stone (1/4″ To 3/4″, Round)
Applications & Uses
#1A Stone, Round, 1/4" to 3/4"
#1A stone in a 1/4" to 3/4" size range with a round attribute is a small, naturally rounded aggregate commonly produced by screening and washing river gravel or glacial deposits. The round shape results from natural weathering and tumbling, making the stones smooth and free of sharp edges.
The 1/4" to 3/4" size range offers excellent drainage properties while remaining easy to handle and spread. The rounded nature of this stone reduces compaction, making it ideal for drainage systems, French drains, and pipe bedding. It is also a popular choice for decorative landscaping, playgrounds, and walkways, as the smooth surface is gentle underfoot and visually appealing. However, because it does not compact tightly, it is less suitable for load-bearing applications like driveways or base layers. Overall, #1A round stone is valued for its versatility, clean appearance, and superior drainage capabilities.
