Crushed Stone (1.5″, Crushed)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone, Crushed, 1.5" Size Range
Crushed stone in a 1.5" size range is a durable aggregate produced by mechanically breaking down larger rocks into angular fragments. The "crushed" attribute means each piece has sharp, irregular edges, which help the material lock together when compacted, providing excellent stability and load-bearing capacity.
The 1.5" size is ideal for applications requiring robust drainage and structural support, such as base layers for driveways, roadways, and parking lots, as well as for erosion control and large-scale drainage projects. Its larger size and angular shape make it less suitable for decorative or surface uses but highly effective where strength and drainage are priorities. While it offers superior stability and resists shifting under heavy loads, it can be harder to compact compared to smaller aggregates and may not provide a smooth finish for walking surfaces.
