Crushed Stone (1.5″ Minus, Cr-6)

Crushed Stone Cr-6 in a 1.5” Minus Size Range

Crushed Stone with a Cr-6 designation in a 1.5" minus size range is a versatile aggregate blend commonly used in construction and landscaping. Cr-6 refers to a mix of crushed stone and stone dust, engineered to create a well-graded material that compacts tightly. The "1.5" minus" specification means the largest particles are 1.5 inches in diameter, with smaller particles and fines filling the gaps for optimal compaction.




This combination of size and fines makes Cr-6 ideal for creating stable, load-bearing surfaces. It is widely used as a base material for driveways, patios, walkways, and under concrete slabs, as well as for road construction and repair. The excellent compaction properties reduce settling and shifting, providing a solid foundation. However, because of the fines content, Cr-6 is not suitable for drainage applications where water flow is needed. Its ease of compaction and stability make it a top choice for both residential and commercial projects requiring a durable, long-lasting base.
