Product Specifications
Applications & Uses
Aggregate Base Course - 1" Minus, Subbase, Crusher Run
Aggregate Base Course in a 1" minus size with a subbase, crusher run attribute is a foundational construction material composed of crushed stone blended with fines. The "1" minus" designation means the largest particles are no bigger than one inch, while the inclusion of fines (smaller particles) ensures excellent compaction and stability. As a crusher run product, it contains a mix of stone and stone dust, which binds together when compacted.
This specific size and composition make it ideal for use as a subbase layer beneath roads, driveways, parking lots, patios, and concrete slabs. Its ability to compact tightly provides a stable, load-bearing surface that resists shifting and settling. The fines content enhances compaction but may reduce drainage compared to more open-graded aggregates. Overall, 1" minus crusher run is valued for its strength, durability, and cost-effectiveness in both residential and commercial site preparation.
