Crushed Stone - Limestone, Grade 9, 3/4" Minus

Crushed stone in a 3/4" minus size, made from high-quality limestone and graded as Grade 9, is a versatile construction aggregate prized for its durability and compaction properties. This material consists of angular limestone fragments mixed with fine particles, all passing through a 3/4" screen. The "minus" designation means it includes both the larger stones and the fines, which help bind the material together.

The combination of limestone and fines in this size range makes Grade 9 crushed stone ideal for creating a stable, compacted base. It is commonly used for sub-bases under driveways, patios, paver projects, and walkways, as well as for road construction and parking lots. The fines fill voids between the larger stones, resulting in excellent load-bearing capacity and reduced shifting over time. While its compactability is a major advantage, the presence of fines means it is less suitable for drainage applications compared to clean stone. Overall, this material is a reliable choice for both residential and commercial base layers where stability and strength are priorities.
