#6 Stone (1″ Minus, 6A, Non Spec, Limestone, Washed)
Product Specifications
Applications & Uses
#6 Stone - 6A, Non Spec, Limestone, Washed, 1" Minus
#6 Stone in a 1" minus size range, featuring a 6A, non-spec, washed limestone composition, is a versatile aggregate ideal for a variety of construction and landscaping projects. Produced by crushing and screening natural limestone, this material is then washed to remove fines and dust, resulting in cleaner, more consistent stone.
The 1" minus sizing means particles range from fine up to 1 inch, allowing for excellent compaction while still providing effective drainage. The washed attribute ensures minimal dust, making it suitable for applications where cleanliness is important, such as under concrete slabs, driveways, and drainage systems. Its non-spec nature makes it a cost-effective choice for general use, though it may not meet strict engineering requirements. Common uses include base layers for roads and patios, backfill for retaining walls, and as a drainage medium. Pros include easy handling, reduced dust, and reliable compaction; however, the non-spec classification may limit its use in highly regulated projects.
