Chip Stone (1/4″, Chips, Mndot)
Applications & Uses
Chip Stone, 1/4" Chips, MnDOT Specification
1/4" chip stone with a "chips" attribute, produced to MnDOT (Minnesota Department of Transportation) specifications, is a finely crushed aggregate known for its uniform size and angular shape. Manufactured by mechanically crushing larger stones, this material is screened to ensure consistent 1/4" particles, making it ideal for precision applications.
The small 1/4" size allows for excellent compaction and a smooth, stable surface, while the angular chips interlock to provide superior traction and minimal movement. Meeting MnDOT standards ensures reliable quality and performance for both residential and commercial projects. Common uses include chip sealing for roadways, walkways, and driveways, as well as a bedding layer for pavers or as a decorative top layer in landscaping. The fine size and angularity make it less suitable for drainage applications but excellent for surfaces requiring stability and minimal dust.
