Concrete Aggregate (1/2″ To 1.5″, Astm, Coarse)
Product Specifications
Applications & Uses
Concrete Aggregate, ASTM Coarse, 1/2" to 1.5"
Concrete aggregate in the ASTM coarse grade, sized from 1/2" to 1.5", is a high-quality crushed stone or gravel specifically engineered for use in concrete mixes. Produced by crushing and screening durable rock, this aggregate meets ASTM standards for strength, cleanliness, and gradation, ensuring reliable performance in structural applications.
The 1/2" to 1.5" size range is ideal for creating strong, stable concrete with excellent load-bearing capacity. Coarse aggregates of this size reduce shrinkage and cracking, while promoting optimal bonding with cement paste. This makes them a preferred choice for residential and commercial projects such as foundations, slabs, driveways, sidewalks, and large-scale infrastructure. The ASTM specification guarantees consistency and quality, while the coarse texture enhances drainage and reduces the risk of water retention. However, due to its larger size, this aggregate is not suitable for thin or decorative concrete finishes.
