#2 Stone, State, 2" Minus

#2 stone in a 2" minus size range with a "State" attribute is a versatile crushed aggregate commonly used in heavy-duty construction applications. This material consists of angular stones that range in size from fine particles up to 2 inches, produced by mechanically crushing larger rocks to meet strict state specifications for consistency and quality.

The 2" minus sizing means the mix contains both larger stones and smaller fines, which helps the material compact well and form a stable base. This makes it ideal for use as a subbase for roads, driveways, parking lots, and building pads, where strength and load-bearing capacity are essential. The presence of fines improves compaction but may reduce drainage compared to clean stone. The "State" designation ensures the product meets regulatory standards, making it suitable for both residential and commercial projects requiring compliance. Overall, #2 stone in this size and specification is valued for its durability, stability, and reliable performance in foundational applications.
