Crushed Stone (7/8″ To 1.5″, Crushed)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone, Crushed, 7/8" to 1.5"
Crushed stone in the 7/8" to 1.5" size range is a versatile aggregate produced by mechanically breaking down larger rocks into angular fragments. The "crushed" attribute means each piece has sharp, irregular edges, which help the material lock together when compacted, providing excellent stability and load-bearing capacity.
This specific size range is ideal for applications where both drainage and structural support are important. Common uses include base layers for driveways, roadways, and parking lots, as well as drainage solutions around foundations and retaining walls. The angular shape of the crushed stone makes it less likely to shift under pressure, but it can be harder to compact compared to smaller or rounded aggregates. Its excellent drainage properties also make it a preferred choice for French drains and septic system installations.
