Crushed Stone (3/8″ To 3/4″, 26A, Limestone)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone 26A Limestone (3/8" to 3/4")
26A limestone crushed stone in a 3/8" to 3/4" size range is a versatile aggregate produced by mechanically crushing and screening natural limestone. This specific gradation offers a blend of fine and medium-sized particles, resulting in a material that compacts well while still allowing for adequate drainage.
The 26A designation indicates a well-graded mix, making it ideal for applications where stability and compaction are important, such as road base, driveways, parking lots, and under concrete slabs. Its limestone composition provides excellent durability and load-bearing capacity, while the size range ensures a smooth, even surface with minimal voids. This material is also commonly used for pathways, patios, and as a leveling base for pavers. Pros include easy compaction, good drainage, and a clean, finished appearance. However, it may not be suitable for decorative landscaping where larger or more colorful stones are desired.
