#9 Stone (#16 To #4)
Applications & Uses
#9 Stone in a #16 to #4 Size Range
#9 stone in a #16 to #4 size range is a finely crushed aggregate, typically produced from high-quality limestone or granite. The particles range from very fine (#16 sieve, about 1/16") up to about 1/4" (#4 sieve), resulting in a material that is both versatile and easy to work with.
This specific size range offers excellent compaction and a smooth finish, making it ideal for use as a top layer for driveways, walkways, and patios. Its fine texture also makes it suitable for use as a bedding material under pavers or as a base for concrete slabs. In commercial settings, #9 stone is often used for pipe bedding, backfilling, and as a component in asphalt mixes. The small particle size ensures minimal voids, which helps prevent shifting and provides a stable surface, though it may not drain as quickly as larger aggregates. Overall, #9 stone in this size range is valued for its workability, compaction, and clean appearance.
