Crushed Stone in a 5/8” Minus Size Range
Crushed stone in a 5/8" minus size range is a versatile aggregate produced by mechanically crushing larger rocks into smaller, angular pieces. The "minus" designation means the material includes both 5/8" stones and smaller particles, down to fines. This blend of sizes allows for excellent compaction, making it a popular choice for a variety of construction and landscaping projects.
The 5/8" minus size is ideal for creating stable, well-draining bases for driveways, walkways, patios, and paver installations. Its angular shape helps the stones lock together, while the fines fill gaps for a firm, smooth surface. This material is also commonly used for road base, under concrete slabs, and as a general-purpose fill. Pros include its ease of compaction and ability to create a solid, level foundation. However, the presence of fines means it may not be suitable for drainage applications where water flow is a priority.Applications & Uses
