#2 Stone (1.5″)
Applications & Uses
#2 Stone in a 1.5" Size Range
#2 stone in a 1.5" size range is a large, crushed aggregate commonly produced from durable materials such as limestone, granite, or gravel. The stones are mechanically crushed and screened to ensure a consistent size, making them ideal for heavy-duty construction applications.
The 1.5" size offers excellent load-bearing capacity and superior drainage properties, making this material a top choice for base layers in road construction, driveways, and parking lots. Its large size prevents compaction, allowing water to flow freely and reducing the risk of pooling or erosion. #2 stone is also frequently used as a sub-base for retaining walls, railroad ballast, and erosion control projects. While its size makes it less suitable for decorative or surface applications, it excels in structural and drainage roles where stability and permeability are priorities.
