Gravel Cm-5, Washed, 1" Size Range

Gravel labeled as Cm-5, washed, in a 1" size range is a high-quality aggregate produced by screening and washing natural stone to remove fines, dust, and debris. The washing process ensures a clean, consistent product, while the 1" size offers a balance between stability and drainage.

The washed attribute means this gravel is free from clay and silt, reducing the risk of compaction issues and minimizing dust-making it ideal for applications where cleanliness and drainage are priorities. Common uses include drainage systems, French drains, septic system bedding, and as a base layer for driveways, walkways, and patios. The 1" size provides excellent load-bearing capacity and resists displacement, but may be less suitable for surfaces requiring tight compaction. Overall, Cm-5 washed gravel is valued for its cleanliness, drainage properties, and versatility in both residential and commercial projects.
