2" to 3" Drain Rock - Leach Rock Limestone for Drainage

2" to 3" drain rock, specifically leach rock limestone, is a coarse aggregate designed for superior drainage performance. Produced by crushing and screening limestone, this material features angular, durable stones within the 2" to 3" size range. The leach rock attribute means it is particularly effective at allowing water to pass through, making it ideal for applications where efficient drainage is critical.

The large, angular size of this limestone aggregate prevents compaction, ensuring void spaces remain open for water flow. This makes it a top choice for septic leach fields, French drains, and other subsurface drainage systems. It is also commonly used as a base layer for retaining wall backfill, erosion control, and large-scale landscaping projects. While its size and shape provide excellent drainage and stability, it is not suitable for areas requiring a smooth or compacted surface. Overall, 2" to 3" leach rock limestone is valued for its reliability in managing water movement and supporting heavy-duty drainage solutions.
