Crushed Stone, Washed, Ca-15, 1/2" Size

Crushed stone in a 1/2" size range, washed and classified as Ca-15, is a versatile aggregate produced by mechanically crushing durable rock and then thoroughly washing it to remove fines and dust. The washing process ensures a cleaner, more consistent product, making it ideal for applications where cleanliness and drainage are priorities.

The 1/2" size offers a balance between compaction and drainage, making it suitable for use in concrete mixes, bedding for pipes, and as a base layer for patios and walkways. The washed attribute reduces dust, which is beneficial for indoor or sensitive environments and helps prevent clogging in drainage systems. Commonly used in both residential and commercial projects, this material is valued for its stability, clean appearance, and reliable performance. While it may be less suitable for areas requiring tight compaction, its excellent drainage and low dust make it a preferred choice for many construction and landscaping needs.
