#5 Stone (1/2″ To 1″, Limestone)
Applications & Uses
#5 Stone Limestone in a 1/2" to 1" Size Range
#5 stone limestone in a 1/2" to 1" size range is a versatile crushed aggregate produced from high-quality limestone. The material is created by mechanically crushing and screening limestone rock, resulting in angular, durable stones that are ideal for a variety of construction and landscaping applications.
The 1/2" to 1" size range offers an optimal balance between compaction and drainage. Its angular shape allows the stones to lock together, providing stability for base layers, while the size ensures efficient water flow, making it suitable for drainage projects. Common uses include base material for driveways, roadways, and parking lots, as well as backfill for retaining walls and pipe bedding. Limestone's natural strength and resistance to weathering make it a reliable choice for both residential and commercial projects. One advantage of this size and material is its ease of installation and long-lasting performance, though it may be less suitable for decorative top layers due to its angular texture.
