#1 Stone (1.5″ To 3.5″, Commercial)
Applications & Uses
#1 Stone, Commercial Grade, 1.5" to 3.5"
#1 Stone in a 1.5" to 3.5" size range is a large, crushed aggregate commonly used in commercial construction projects. Produced by mechanically crushing and screening natural rock, this material features angular edges that interlock well, providing stability and strength for heavy-duty applications.
The commercial grade attribute ensures consistent sizing and durability, making it ideal for demanding environments. The larger size range allows for excellent drainage and load-bearing capacity, which is why #1 Stone is frequently used as a base layer for roads, highways, and large-scale foundations. It is also suitable for erosion control, retaining wall backfill, and large drainage projects. While its size makes it less suitable for compacting or decorative use, it excels in structural and drainage roles where strength and permeability are priorities.
