#6 Stone (3/8″ To 3/4″, Washed)
Applications & Uses
#6 Washed Stone (3/8" to 3/4")
#6 washed stone in a 3/8" to 3/4" size range is a versatile, clean aggregate produced by crushing and screening natural stone, then thoroughly washing it to remove dust, clay, and fine particles. The washing process ensures a cleaner product, reducing the risk of compaction issues and minimizing dust during installation.
The 3/8" to 3/4" size range offers an ideal balance between drainage and stability, making this material well-suited for a variety of residential and commercial applications. Common uses include drainage systems, septic fields, concrete mixes, driveways, and as a base for patios or walkways. The washed attribute enhances drainage performance and prevents clogging, while also making the stone more visually appealing for decorative landscaping. One consideration is that, due to its clean and angular nature, #6 washed stone does not compact as tightly as finer materials, so it may not be ideal for surfaces requiring a firm, compacted base.
