#57 Stone - Granite, #4 to 1" Size Range

#57 stone in a #4 to 1" size range is a versatile crushed granite aggregate prized for its durability and angular shape. Produced by mechanically crushing granite rock, this material features pieces that range from approximately 1 inch down to #4 sieve size, ensuring a consistent, well-graded product.

The granite composition offers superior strength and resistance to weathering, making it ideal for high-traffic and load-bearing applications. The #4 to 1" size range provides excellent drainage while maintaining stability, which is essential for projects like driveways, parking lots, French drains, septic fields, and as a base for concrete slabs or pavers. Its angular edges help the stones lock together, reducing movement and improving load distribution, though it may be less comfortable for barefoot use and can be harder to compact compared to finer materials. Overall, #57 granite stone is a reliable choice for both residential and commercial construction where strength, drainage, and longevity are priorities.
