Chip Stone in a #4 to 3/8" Size Range

Chip stone in a #4 to 3/8" size range is a versatile crushed aggregate commonly produced from durable natural rock through mechanical crushing and screening. This specific size range offers a balance between fine and coarse aggregate, making it ideal for a variety of construction and landscaping applications.

The #4 to 3/8" chip stone is small enough to provide a smooth, compactable surface, yet large enough to allow for effective drainage. This makes it a popular choice for use as a base material under pavers, in pathways, and for decorative ground cover. It is also frequently used in asphalt mixes, concrete blends, and as a bedding layer for pipes. The manageable size helps reduce voids, resulting in a stable, even surface, while still allowing water to pass through, minimizing pooling and erosion. This aggregate is easy to work with, making it suitable for both residential DIY projects and larger commercial installations.
