Crushed Stone, Clean, 4" to 6"

Clean crushed stone in a 4" to 6" size range is a large, angular aggregate produced by mechanically breaking down natural rock. The "clean" attribute means the material is free from fines, dust, and smaller particles, ensuring optimal drainage and minimal compaction.

This substantial size and clean composition make it ideal for heavy-duty applications where stability and water flow are critical. Common uses include erosion control, base layers for large retaining walls, construction entrances, and as a foundation for riprap in drainage channels or shorelines. The large, angular pieces interlock well, providing excellent resistance to movement while allowing water to pass through freely. However, due to its size, it is not suitable for areas requiring a smooth or compacted surface. This material is favored for its durability, drainage properties, and effectiveness in controlling soil erosion.
