Screenings #10 Asphalt, Unwashed - Black

Screenings in the #10 size range are finely crushed stone particles, typically less than 3/16" in diameter. This particular product is unwashed and blended with asphalt, giving it a distinctive black color and slightly tacky texture. The unwashed attribute means the material retains fine dust and particles, which can help with compaction but may generate more dust during installation.

The fine, granular nature of #10 screenings makes them ideal for use as a leveling base beneath asphalt pavements, walkways, and patios, where a smooth, stable surface is essential. The asphalt blend enhances binding, making these screenings especially suitable for patching potholes, filling cracks, or as a base for new asphalt layers in both residential driveways and commercial parking lots. While the unwashed aspect can improve compaction, it may not be suitable for applications where minimal dust is required. Overall, this material offers excellent stability and binding for paving projects, with the added benefit of a uniform black appearance.
