#9 Stone (#16 To #8)
Applications & Uses
#9 Stone in a #16 to #8 Size Range
#9 stone in a #16 to #8 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 but retained on a #16 sieve, resulting in a granular material that is finer than standard gravel but coarser than sand.
This specific size range offers excellent compaction and a smooth finish, making it ideal for use as a leveling layer beneath pavers, patios, and concrete slabs. Its fine texture also makes it suitable for use in asphalt mixes, walkways, and as a bedding material for pipes. The small particle size ensures minimal voids, which helps prevent shifting and settling, but it may not provide optimal drainage compared to larger aggregates. Overall, #9 stone in this size range is valued for its versatility, ease of installation, and ability to create stable, even surfaces in both residential and commercial projects.
