#57 Stone (#4 To 1″, Limestone, Drainage)
Applications & Uses
#57 Stone - Limestone, Drainage, #4 to 1" Size Range
#57 stone in a #4 to 1" size range is a versatile crushed limestone aggregate, specifically engineered for optimal drainage. Produced by mechanically crushing and screening limestone, this material features angular edges that interlock well, providing stability while allowing water to flow freely through the gaps.
The #4 to 1" size range is ideal for drainage applications because the larger, uniform pieces prevent clogging and promote rapid water movement. This makes #57 limestone stone a top choice for French drains, septic system fields, retaining wall backfill, and foundation drainage. In residential and commercial projects, it's also commonly used as a base for driveways, walkways, and patios where drainage is a priority. The angular shape resists shifting, but the larger size means it's less suitable for areas requiring tight compaction or a smooth finish. Overall, #57 limestone stone is valued for its durability, excellent drainage properties, and reliable performance in both structural and landscaping applications.
