#5 Stone (3/8″ To 1.5″)
Applications & Uses
#5 Stone in a 3/8" to 1.5" Size Range
#5 stone in a 3/8" to 1.5" size range is a versatile crushed aggregate commonly produced from granite, limestone, or trap rock. The material consists of angular stones that have been mechanically crushed and screened to ensure consistent sizing within this range.
The broad size range of #5 stone makes it ideal for applications requiring both stability and drainage. The larger particles provide structural support, while the smaller pieces help fill gaps, reducing voids and improving compaction. This makes #5 stone a popular choice for driveway bases, road construction, drainage solutions, and as a sub-base for patios and walkways. Its angular shape locks together well, offering excellent load-bearing capacity but may be less comfortable for barefoot use or decorative top layers. Overall, #5 stone is valued for its balance of strength, drainage, and versatility in both residential and commercial projects.
