#57 Stone (1″)
Applications & Uses
#57 Stone in a 1" Size Range
#57 stone in a 1" size range is a versatile crushed aggregate commonly produced from granite, limestone, or trap rock. The stones are mechanically crushed and screened to ensure a consistent size, making them ideal for a variety of construction and landscaping applications.
The 1" size offers excellent drainage properties while providing substantial load-bearing support. This makes #57 stone particularly effective for use in driveways, road bases, and as a sub-base for concrete slabs and patios. Its angular shape helps it lock together, reducing movement and improving stability, but it does not compact as tightly as finer materials, which enhances drainage but may require edging for containment. #57 stone is also frequently used in French drains, septic system fields, and erosion control projects due to its ability to facilitate water flow while preventing soil migration.
