#78 Stone (Granite) in #8 to 1/2” Size Range
#78 stone in a #8 to 1/2" size range is a crushed granite aggregate known for its durability and angular shape. Produced by mechanically crushing granite rock, this material offers a consistent particle size that enhances stability and compaction. The granite attribute ensures a hard, long-lasting aggregate that resists weathering and maintains its structural integrity over time.
The #8 to 1/2" size range makes #78 stone ideal for applications requiring both drainage and compaction. Its relatively small, uniform pieces allow water to pass through easily, making it a popular choice for drainage systems, French drains, and underlayment for pavers or concrete slabs. In residential projects, it is often used for walkways, driveways, and as a base for patios. Commercially, it serves well in road construction, utility backfill, and erosion control. The angular granite particles lock together for stability but may be less comfortable for barefoot use and can be harder to spread evenly compared to rounded aggregates.Applications & Uses
