#5 Stone (1/2″ To 1″, Washed)
Applications & Uses
#5 Washed Stone (1/2" to 1")
#5 washed stone in a 1/2" to 1" size range is a versatile, clean aggregate commonly used in both residential and commercial construction. Produced by crushing and screening natural stone, then thoroughly washing it, this material is free from dust, clay, and debris, ensuring a cleaner and more consistent product.
The 1/2" to 1" size offers excellent drainage properties while remaining stable under load, making it ideal for use in drainage systems, septic fields, French drains, and as a base for driveways and walkways. The washed attribute reduces the risk of compaction and clogging, which is especially important in applications where water flow is critical. Additionally, its clean appearance and reduced dust make it suitable for decorative landscaping and around playgrounds. While its loose nature means it is not ideal for areas requiring tight compaction, #5 washed stone is valued for its durability, drainage, and low maintenance.
