Screenings Chips in a 1/4” Size Range
Screenings chips in a 1/4" size range are finely crushed stone particles produced as a byproduct of the aggregate screening process. These chips are angular in shape, which helps them lock together when compacted, creating a stable and durable surface. The small 1/4" size ensures a tight, smooth finish, making this material ideal for applications where a level base or fine grading is required.
This specific size and chip attribute make screenings chips particularly effective for use as a setting bed for pavers, flagstone, or bricks, as well as for pathways, patios, and underlayment for artificial turf. The fine texture allows for excellent compaction and minimal shifting, while the angular chips provide good drainage and reduce the risk of washouts. However, because of their small size, screenings chips may not be suitable for areas requiring significant load-bearing or where deep drainage is needed. Overall, 1/4" screenings chips offer a versatile, easy-to-work-with solution for both residential and commercial landscaping and construction projects.Applications & Uses
