Chip Stone (3/8″, Reject)
Applications & Uses
3/8" Chip Stone Reject
3/8" Chip Stone Reject is a byproduct of the stone crushing process, consisting of small, angular fragments that did not meet the specifications for standard chip stone. This material typically features a mix of fine particles and irregular chips, resulting from the screening and sorting of larger aggregate.
The 3/8" size range offers a compactable yet permeable base, making it suitable for applications where drainage and stability are important but appearance is less critical. The "reject" attribute means this material may contain more fines and irregular shapes, which can enhance compaction but may also result in a less uniform finish. Common uses include sub-base layers for driveways, walkways, and patios, as well as backfill for retaining walls and utility trenches. While it may not be ideal for decorative surfaces, its affordability and functional properties make it a practical choice for foundational and structural projects.
