Crushed Stone (1.5″ To 2″, Crushed)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone, Crushed, 1.5" to 2"
Crushed stone in the 1.5" to 2" 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.
This larger size is ideal for heavy-duty applications where superior drainage and structural support are required. Common uses include base layers for driveways, road construction, erosion control, and as a foundation for retaining walls. The angular shape prevents shifting and settling, making it less suitable for decorative or walking surfaces but highly effective for projects needing robust support and drainage. While it is not easily compacted to a smooth finish, its strength and permeability make it a top choice for demanding construction and landscaping projects.
