Recycled Aggregate Slag, 2" to 4" Size Range, Ash Color

Recycled aggregate slag in a 2" to 4" size range is a robust construction material produced by processing steel manufacturing byproducts. The slag is crushed and screened to achieve consistent, angular pieces, and its ash color gives it a distinctive, industrial appearance. This material is valued for its durability and eco-friendly profile, as it diverts waste from landfills and reduces the need for virgin stone.

The large 2" to 4" size makes this slag aggregate ideal for heavy-duty applications where stability and drainage are critical. It is commonly used as a base layer for road construction, erosion control, and large-scale drainage projects. The angular shape ensures excellent interlock and load distribution, while the slag attribute provides high resistance to wear and chemical attack. However, due to its coarse size, it is not suitable for areas requiring compaction or a smooth finish. This material is a practical choice for both commercial and infrastructure projects seeking sustainable, high-performance aggregate solutions.
