Drain Rock (1.5″, Screened, Drainage)
Applications & Uses
1.5" Screened Drain Rock for Drainage Applications
1.5" screened drain rock is a durable, natural stone aggregate specifically sized and processed for optimal drainage performance. The screening process ensures that each stone falls within the 1.5-inch size range, removing fines and smaller particles that could impede water flow. This makes the material especially effective for applications where rapid drainage and minimal clogging are essential.
The larger 1.5" size allows for excellent water movement, making this drain rock ideal for French drains, septic system installations, retaining wall backfill, and other drainage solutions in both residential and commercial projects. Its screened attribute means less dust and debris, resulting in cleaner installations and reduced maintenance over time. While the larger stones do not compact as tightly as smaller aggregates, this is a benefit in drainage scenarios, as it prevents water from pooling and promotes efficient runoff. However, the coarse texture may not be suitable for surfaces requiring a smooth or walkable finish.
