Screenings (#10, Limestone)
Applications & Uses
Limestone Screenings (#10 Size Range)
Limestone screenings in a #10 size range are a finely crushed aggregate produced from natural limestone. These screenings are created during the crushing process, resulting in particles that are much smaller than traditional gravel, typically passing through a 3/16" sieve. The limestone attribute ensures a consistent, light-colored material with excellent compaction properties.
The fine #10 size makes limestone screenings ideal for creating a smooth, stable base layer beneath pavers, patios, and walkways. Their small particle size allows for tight compaction, reducing the risk of shifting or settling over time. This material is also commonly used for leveling surfaces, filling gaps between stones, and as a top dressing for pathways. While limestone screenings offer superior stability and a clean finish, they can retain moisture and may harden when wet, making them less suitable for drainage applications. Overall, they are a cost-effective, versatile choice for both residential and commercial hardscape projects.
