High Performance Gravel, 1" to 2" Size Range

High performance gravel in a 1" to 2" size range is a durable, versatile aggregate engineered for demanding construction and landscaping applications. Produced by crushing and screening natural stone, this gravel features angular edges that interlock for enhanced stability and load-bearing capacity.

The larger 1" to 2" size provides excellent drainage and resists compaction, making it ideal for heavy-duty uses such as base layers for driveways, roadways, and parking lots, as well as for erosion control and French drains. Its high performance attribute ensures superior strength and longevity, reducing maintenance needs over time. While its size and angularity offer outstanding support and drainage, it may be less suitable for surfaces requiring a smooth finish or easy compaction. This makes it a top choice for both residential and commercial projects where durability and drainage are priorities.
