#3 Stone (1″ To 2″, Washed, Concrete)
Applications & Uses
#3 Stone, Washed, Concrete Color, 1" to 2" Size Range
#3 stone in a 1" to 2" size range is a large, washed aggregate commonly used in heavy-duty construction and drainage applications. Produced by crushing and screening natural stone, this material is thoroughly washed to remove dust and fine particles, resulting in a clean, concrete-colored appearance.
The larger 1" to 2" size makes #3 stone ideal for projects requiring excellent drainage and load-bearing capacity, such as base layers for roads, erosion control, and large-scale drainage systems. The washed attribute ensures minimal dust, making it suitable for use around foundations and in areas where cleanliness is important. While its size prevents easy compaction, it excels in providing stability and preventing soil movement. This makes #3 stone a preferred choice for commercial site work, retaining wall backfill, and railroad ballast, as well as for residential uses like French drains and driveway sub-bases.
