Details
The finest crushed limestone we stock — essentially limestone dust up through small chips. "Screenings" are what falls through the screen when Grade 8 is sorted for size, so it's the concentrated fine material that packs down hardest.
Compacts into something almost like concrete when it gets wet and dries. The standard setting bed under pavers, flagstone, and patio stones. One yard levels a surprising area when spread at the typical 1–2" base thickness.
