Chip Stone (3/8″ To #16, Washed)

Washed Chip Stone, 3/8” to #16 Size Range

Washed chip stone in a 3/8" to #16 size range is a versatile aggregate produced by crushing and screening natural stone, then thoroughly washing it to remove dust, clay, and fine particles. The washing process ensures a clean, debris-free material that is ideal for applications where cleanliness and drainage are priorities.




The specific size range-spanning from coarse chips (3/8") down to fine particles (#16 sieve)-offers excellent compaction while still allowing for effective water flow. This makes washed chip stone particularly suitable for use in permeable paver bases, drainage layers, and as a bedding material for pipes and utility trenches. In residential projects, it's commonly used for walkways, patios, and as a decorative ground cover. The washed attribute reduces dust and tracking, making it cleaner to handle and less likely to cause issues in finished surfaces. However, because it is less compactable than finer materials, it may not be ideal for load-bearing base layers where maximum stability is required.
