Washed Crushed Stone in a 6" Size Range

Washed crushed stone in a 6" size range is a large, angular aggregate produced by mechanically crushing and screening natural stone, then thoroughly washing it to remove dust, fines, and debris. The washing process ensures a cleaner, more consistent product, which is especially important for applications where cleanliness and drainage are priorities.

The substantial 6" size makes this material ideal for heavy-duty uses such as erosion control, riprap for shorelines and embankments, and large-scale drainage projects. Its angular shape helps it lock in place, providing stability and resistance to movement, while the washed attribute minimizes the risk of clogging and promotes optimal water flow. While its large size and weight make it unsuitable for compacted surfaces or decorative landscaping, washed 6" crushed stone is a top choice for robust structural and environmental applications where durability and drainage are essential.
