5/8" Minus

5/8" minus crushed rock is a type of crushed aggregate where the largest pieces are no larger than 5/8" in diameter, and it also includes fines or dust-sized particles. These fines contribute to the material's ability to pack down tightly when compacted, making it suitable for applications like driveways, walkways, and base layers for paving stones.
Size:
The rock pieces are all 5/8" in diameter or smaller, with some smaller particles (fines) mixed in.
Fines:
The "minus" designation indicates the presence of fines, which are smaller particles that fill in the gaps between the larger rocks.
Applications:
Driveways and Walkways: The packing properties of 5/8" minus rock make it a good choice for these applications, as it provides a stable and level surface. Due to its smaller size, it will compact to smoother finish.
Base Material: It's often used as a base layer under pavers, flagstone, or other paving materials, providing a solid foundation.
Compaction: The fines help the material compact tightly when compacted, creating a more solid and durable surface.
