#7 Stone in a #4 to 1/2" Size Range

#7 stone in a #4 to 1/2" size range is a versatile crushed aggregate commonly produced from durable natural rock such as granite, limestone, or gravel. The material is screened to ensure uniform particle sizes between #4 (approximately 1/2") and 1/2", making it ideal for projects that require a balance between drainage and compaction.

This specific size range allows #7 stone to provide excellent drainage while still offering enough stability for use as a base material. It is frequently used in residential and commercial applications such as bedding for pavers, walkways, driveways, and drainage systems. The relatively small, consistent size makes it easy to spread and work with, while minimizing voids for a smoother finish. However, because it is less compactable than finer aggregates, it may not be suitable as a top layer for surfaces requiring a tightly packed finish. Overall, #7 stone in this size range is valued for its versatility, ease of installation, and reliable drainage properties.
