Grade 9 Gravel in a 1/4" to 3/8" Size Range

Grade 9 gravel in a 1/4" to 3/8" size range is a compactable crushed stone aggregate commonly used in construction and landscaping. Produced by mechanically crushing larger stones, this material features angular particles that interlock well, providing a stable base layer.

The specific 1/4" to 3/8" size ensures excellent compaction while maintaining good drainage, making it ideal for sub-base layers under driveways, patios, sidewalks, and paver projects. Its fine grading allows for a smooth, even surface that resists shifting and settling. Grade 9 gravel is also popular for use in pathways and as a base for retaining walls. While its compactability is a major advantage, it is less decorative than larger or rounded gravels and may generate some dust during installation. Overall, this material is valued for its stability, versatility, and reliable performance in both residential and commercial applications.
