#6A Stone, Washed, 3/4" to 1.5" - Premium Drainage Aggregate

#6A stone in a 3/4" to 1.5" size range is a high-quality, washed aggregate specifically designed for superior drainage performance. Produced by crushing and screening natural stone, this material is thoroughly washed to remove fines and dust, resulting in clean, angular stones that promote optimal water flow.

The larger size range and washed attribute make #6A stone ideal for applications where drainage is critical, such as French drains, septic systems, and foundation backfill. Its clean, angular shape prevents compaction, ensuring water can move freely through the aggregate. This makes it a popular choice for both residential and commercial drainage projects, as well as for use as a base layer under driveways and patios. While its excellent drainage properties are a major advantage, the lack of fines means it is not suitable for areas requiring compaction or a smooth finish.
