#2 Stone (1.5″ To 2.5″, Commercial, Limestone)
Product Specifications
Applications & Uses
#2 Stone, Commercial Limestone (1.5" to 2.5")
#2 stone in a 1.5" to 2.5" size range is a large, angular aggregate made from durable limestone, specifically graded for commercial applications. Produced by crushing and screening natural limestone, this material offers excellent strength and longevity, making it a reliable choice for demanding construction environments.
The larger size of #2 stone provides superior load-bearing capacity and exceptional drainage, which is ideal for use as a base layer in road construction, commercial driveways, and heavy-duty parking lots. Its angular shape helps lock the stones together, reducing movement and enhancing stability under heavy loads. While its size makes it less suitable for decorative or compacted surfaces, it excels in structural and drainage roles, such as under railroad ballast, erosion control, and large-scale foundation projects.
Pros include high durability, excellent drainage, and strong support for overlying materials. However, due to its size, it is not easily compacted and may not be suitable for finished surfaces where a smoother or more compacted base is required.
