Asphalt Aggregate (3/8″, Chip)
Applications & Uses
3/8" Chip Asphalt Aggregate
3/8" chip asphalt aggregate is a crushed stone material specifically sized for use in asphalt mixes and surface treatments. Produced by mechanically crushing and screening durable rock, these chips are angular in shape, which helps them interlock tightly within asphalt or other binding materials.
The 3/8" size is ideal for creating a stable, skid-resistant surface while maintaining a smooth finish. The chip attribute ensures excellent bonding with asphalt binders, reducing the risk of displacement and improving the longevity of paved surfaces. This aggregate is commonly used in residential driveways, commercial parking lots, road resurfacing, and chip seal applications. Its angular shape promotes strong compaction and effective load distribution, though it may be less suitable for decorative or barefoot areas due to its rough texture. Overall, 3/8" chip asphalt aggregate offers reliable performance for both new construction and maintenance projects.
