#10 Stone (3/8″ Minus, Limestone)
Applications & Uses
#10 Stone - Limestone, 3/8" Minus
#10 stone in a 3/8" minus size range is a finely crushed limestone aggregate, often referred to as limestone screenings or stone dust. Produced by mechanically crushing larger limestone rocks, this material consists of particles ranging from 3/8 inch down to fine dust, creating a compactable and stable base.
The 3/8" minus sizing is ideal for applications where a smooth, level surface is required. The fine particles fill gaps between larger aggregates, making it excellent for use as a base layer beneath pavers, patios, and walkways. Its limestone composition provides durability and natural compaction, reducing shifting and settling over time. Common uses include residential driveways, pathways, and as a leveling agent for hardscape projects. While its fine texture offers superior compaction and a smooth finish, it may not be suitable for drainage applications, as it can retain water and become muddy when wet.
