#3 Stone (1/2″ To 2.5″)

#3 stone in a 1/2" to 2.5" size range is a large, crushed aggregate commonly produced from durable natural rock such as granite, limestone, or trap rock. The material is created by mechanically crushing and screening stone to achieve the specified size range, resulting in angular pieces that interlock well.
