Crushed Stone, TxDOT, 2" Minus

Crushed stone in a 2" minus size range with a TxDOT specification is a durable aggregate produced by mechanically crushing larger rocks into angular fragments. The "2" minus" designation means the material contains pieces up to 2 inches in diameter, along with smaller particles and fines, ensuring a well-graded mix. The TxDOT attribute indicates that this product meets the rigorous standards set by the Texas Department of Transportation, making it suitable for state and municipal projects.

The combination of large and fine particles in 2" minus crushed stone provides excellent compaction and load-bearing properties, making it ideal for use as a base material in road construction, driveways, parking lots, and under concrete slabs. Its angular shape locks together for stability, while the fines fill voids to minimize shifting. This material is also commonly used for erosion control, retaining wall backfill, and heavy-duty access roads. While its coarse texture offers superior strength and drainage, it may be less suitable for decorative or surface applications where a smoother finish is desired.
