Crushed Stone Ca-50, 3/4" Size

Crushed Stone with a Ca-50 attribute in a 3/4" size range is a versatile aggregate produced by mechanically crushing durable rock into angular fragments. The Ca-50 specification indicates a particular gradation and calcium content, making it suitable for applications where both structural stability and chemical composition are important.

The 3/4" size offers an ideal balance between compaction and drainage. Its angular shape helps lock pieces together, providing excellent load-bearing capacity for driveways, road bases, and parking lots. This size is also commonly used in concrete mixes, retaining wall backfill, and as a sub-base for patios and walkways. The Ca-50 attribute ensures consistent quality and performance, especially in environments where specific material standards are required. While its angularity improves stability, it may be less comfortable for barefoot areas and can be harder to spread evenly compared to rounded aggregates.
