#4 Stone (3/4″ To 1.5″, Coarse)
Applications & Uses
#4 Stone, Coarse, 3/4" to 1.5"
#4 stone in a coarse 3/4" to 1.5" size range is a durable aggregate composed of crushed rock fragments. The coarse texture and larger particle size make this material ideal for applications where strength, stability, and effective drainage are essential. Produced by mechanically crushing and screening natural stone, #4 stone is free of fine particles, resulting in a rough, angular profile that interlocks well but does not compact tightly.
This size and coarseness are particularly valuable for heavy-duty uses such as base layers for driveways, road construction, railroad ballast, and large-scale drainage projects. The open structure allows water to flow freely, reducing the risk of pooling and erosion, while the substantial size resists displacement under heavy loads. However, the coarse texture can make it less suitable for surfaces requiring a smooth finish or for areas with frequent foot traffic. Overall, #4 coarse stone is a reliable choice for foundational and drainage-focused construction needs.
