Gravel in a 3/8" to 3/4" Size Range

Gravel in the 3/8" to 3/4" size range is a versatile aggregate commonly produced by crushing natural stone or rock. This gradation offers a balanced mix of smaller and medium-sized stones, making it suitable for a wide variety of construction and landscaping projects.

The specific size range provides excellent drainage while still offering enough compaction for stability. This makes it ideal for use in driveways, walkways, and as a base material for patios and pavers. It is also frequently used in French drains, pipe bedding, and as backfill around retaining walls. The mix of sizes helps lock the stones together, reducing movement under load, but it may not compact as tightly as finer materials, which is beneficial for drainage but less so for surfaces requiring a very firm base.
