#8 Stone (#8 To 3/8″, Granite)
Applications & Uses
#8 Granite Stone in a #8 to 3/8" Size Range
#8 granite stone in a #8 to 3/8" size range is a crushed aggregate produced from high-quality granite rock. The stone is carefully screened to ensure uniform sizing, resulting in angular particles that measure between #8 sieve and 3/8 inch. Granite's natural hardness and durability make this material especially resilient and long-lasting.
The #8 to 3/8" size range offers excellent drainage properties while providing enough compaction for stability, making it ideal for use in permeable paver bases, French drains, and pipe bedding. Its angular shape helps lock the stones together, reducing movement under load, which is beneficial for walkways, driveways, and landscaping projects. The granite attribute ensures a clean, attractive appearance and resistance to weathering. While its small size is not ideal for heavy compaction layers, it excels in applications where drainage and decorative appeal are priorities.
