#9 Stone (#16 To #4, Granite)
Applications & Uses
#9 Stone (Granite) in #16 to #4 Size Range
#9 stone made from granite and sized between #16 to #4 is a finely crushed aggregate known for its durability and angular shape. Produced by mechanically crushing granite rock, this material offers a consistent gradation of small particles, making it ideal for applications where stability and compaction are important.
The #16 to #4 size range means the particles are quite small, allowing for excellent compaction and a smooth finish. This makes granite #9 stone a popular choice for use as a base layer beneath pavers, patios, and walkways, as well as for pipe bedding and backfill. Its angular texture locks together well, reducing movement and providing a stable foundation. Additionally, granite's natural hardness ensures long-lasting performance, while the fine sizing minimizes voids and helps prevent weed growth. However, because of its small size, it may not be ideal for drainage applications where larger aggregate is preferred.
