#5 Stone (1/2″ To 3/4″, Limestone)
Applications & Uses
#5 Stone Limestone in a 1/2" to 3/4" Size Range
#5 stone limestone in a 1/2" to 3/4" 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 3/4" size range offers an optimal balance between compaction and drainage. This makes it an excellent choice for use as a base material under concrete slabs, driveways, and walkways, as well as for drainage solutions such as French drains and septic system bedding. The angular shape of the limestone ensures stability and interlocking strength, while its natural composition provides long-lasting performance. While this size is easy to work with and provides good load-bearing capacity, it may not compact as tightly as finer aggregates, making it best suited for applications where drainage and stability are priorities.
