#9 Stone (#16 To #7)
Applications & Uses
#9 Stone in a #16 to #7 Size Range
#9 stone in a #16 to #7 size range is a finely crushed aggregate, typically produced from high-quality limestone or granite. The particles are small, generally passing through a 3/8" sieve and ranging from coarse sand to fine gravel in texture. This gradation results in a material that is easy to spread and compact, making it highly versatile for a variety of construction and landscaping applications.
The fine size of #9 stone allows for excellent compaction and a smooth finish, which is ideal for use as a leveling base beneath pavers, patios, and walkways. It is also commonly used for driveways, bicycle paths, and as a bedding material for underground pipes and utility lines. The smaller particle size ensures minimal voids, providing stability and reducing the risk of shifting or settling over time. While its fine texture offers superior compaction, it may not be suitable for drainage applications where larger, more open-graded stone is required.
