Crushed Stone (1/4″, Unwashed)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone, Unwashed, 1/4" Size
1/4" unwashed crushed stone is a versatile aggregate produced by mechanically breaking down larger rocks into angular fragments. Unlike washed stone, this material retains fine particles and dust, which can enhance compaction but may also introduce some debris.
The small 1/4" size makes this crushed stone ideal for applications requiring a stable, compactable base, such as under pavers, walkways, or as a bedding layer for pipes. Its unwashed attribute means it binds well, reducing movement and settling over time, but it may generate more dust during installation. This product is commonly used in both residential and commercial projects where drainage is less critical and a firm foundation is needed.
