Crushed Stone (1.5″, Washed, Concrete)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone, Washed, Concrete Grade - 1.5" Size
1.5" washed crushed stone in concrete grade is a durable aggregate produced by mechanically crushing larger rocks and then thoroughly washing the material to remove dust, fines, and impurities. The washing process ensures a cleaner product, which is especially important for concrete applications where excess dust can weaken the final mix.
The 1.5" size range offers excellent load-bearing capacity and drainage, making it ideal for use as a base material in large-scale concrete projects, road construction, and heavy-duty driveways. Its angular shape helps it lock together for stability, while the washed attribute reduces the risk of compaction issues and improves concrete bonding. This material is also commonly used in drainage fields, erosion control, and as a stable subbase for retaining walls. While its larger size is not suitable for decorative top layers or pathways, it excels in structural and foundational roles where strength and drainage are priorities.
