Drain Rock (1″, Drainage)
Applications & Uses
1" Drain Rock for Superior Drainage
1" drain rock is a durable, naturally occurring or crushed stone aggregate specifically sized for optimal drainage performance. The 1-inch size allows water to flow freely between the stones, making it an excellent choice for applications where efficient water movement is essential.
This material is commonly used in French drains, septic system leach fields, retaining wall backfill, and around foundation perimeters to prevent water accumulation. Its larger size resists compaction, ensuring long-term drainage capability, while also reducing the risk of clogging compared to finer aggregates. While not ideal for surfaces requiring compaction or a smooth finish, 1" drain rock excels in any project where drainage and erosion control are priorities.
