Crushed Stone (2″, Screened)
Applications & Uses
Screened Crushed Stone in a 2" Size Range
Screened crushed stone in a 2" size range is a durable aggregate produced by mechanically crushing larger rocks and then passing the material through screens to ensure uniform sizing. The screening process removes fines and smaller particles, resulting in consistently sized, angular stones that are ideal for heavy-duty construction applications.
The 2" size offers excellent load-bearing capacity and superior drainage, making it a popular choice for base layers in road construction, driveways, and parking lots. Its large, angular pieces interlock well, providing stability while allowing water to pass through, which helps prevent pooling and erosion. This material is also commonly used for erosion control, retaining wall backfill, and as a sub-base for large commercial projects. While its size and lack of fines make it less suitable for compacting into a smooth surface, these same attributes enhance drainage and structural support, making it a reliable choice for foundational work.
