Gravel, Blended Product, 3/8" to 1.5"

Gravel in a blended product with a size range of 3/8" to 1.5" is a versatile aggregate composed of mixed stone fragments. This blend is typically produced by screening and combining various sizes of crushed stone, resulting in a well-graded material that offers both stability and effective drainage.

The wide size range allows for excellent compaction while still maintaining voids for water to pass through, making it ideal for applications where both support and drainage are important. Common uses include base layers for driveways, walkways, patios, and as a sub-base for concrete slabs. In commercial settings, it's often used for road construction, parking lots, and utility trench backfill. The blended nature of this gravel means it locks together well, reducing shifting and settling, but may be less decorative than uniform-sized or colored aggregates.
