#6 Stone (3/8″ To 3/4″, Washed)
Applications & Uses
#6 Washed Stone (3/8" to 3/4")
#6 washed stone in a 3/8" to 3/4" size range is a versatile, clean aggregate produced by crushing and screening natural stone, then thoroughly washing it to remove dust, clay, and fine particles. The washing process ensures a cleaner product, reducing the risk of compaction issues and minimizing dust during installation.
The 3/8" to 3/4" size range offers an ideal balance between drainage and stability, making this material well-suited for a variety of applications. It is commonly used in drainage systems, septic fields, and as a base for driveways, walkways, and patios. The washed attribute enhances its performance in these settings by promoting excellent water flow and reducing the likelihood of clogging. While its clean, angular shape provides good interlock and load-bearing capacity, it is less suitable for areas requiring tight compaction. Overall, #6 washed stone is a reliable choice for both residential and commercial projects where clean, effective drainage and structural support are priorities.
