#57 Stone, Natural, #4 to 1" Size Range

#57 stone in a natural finish and #4 to 1" size range is a versatile crushed aggregate commonly sourced from granite, limestone, or trap rock. The "natural" attribute means the stone is unwashed and retains its original dust and fines, which can aid in compaction. The #4 to 1" size range offers a blend of medium to large particles, providing a balance between stability and drainage.

This material is widely used in both residential and commercial projects. Its size makes it ideal for driveways, parking lots, and as a base layer under concrete slabs or pavers. The natural fines help lock the stones together, improving load-bearing capacity and reducing movement, though it may generate more dust compared to washed stone. #57 stone is also suitable for drainage applications, such as French drains and septic systems, where moderate water flow is needed without excessive compaction. Overall, its versatility and cost-effectiveness make it a popular choice for a range of construction and landscaping needs.
