Crushed Stone (2.5″)
Applications & Uses
Crushed Stone in a 2.5" Size Range
Crushed stone in a 2.5" size range is a durable aggregate produced by mechanically breaking down larger rocks into angular fragments. This larger size makes it ideal for heavy-duty construction applications where strength and stability are essential.
The 2.5" size is particularly effective for use as a base material in road construction, erosion control, and large-scale drainage projects. Its substantial size allows for excellent load-bearing capacity and promotes superior drainage, making it a preferred choice for stabilizing soft or wet ground and for use in retaining wall backfill. While its angular shape helps lock pieces together for added stability, the large size means it is not suitable for areas requiring a smooth or compacted surface. This material is best used in foundational layers rather than as a finished surface.
