Crushed Stone & Base

#8 Limestone

#8 limestone is a small, clean crushed stone ranging from 3/8 inch down to fine chip size. It sits between #57 and the finest chip gradations, which makes it the right call for concrete aggregate, fine drainage layers, and applications where a smaller stone is needed without going all the way to a screenings material.

About This Product

Small Stone, Precise Gradation

#8 limestone fills the gap between the larger drainage stones and fine screenings material. Its clean, consistent gradation means it works predictably in concrete mixes, packs around pipe evenly, and creates a reliable drainage layer in situations where #57 stone would leave too large a void.

Concrete contractors use it as the coarse aggregate in mixes where a finer gradation is specified. It also works well as the final layer in a drainage system, providing a smooth transition between larger stone below and the surface material above.

For Jefferson Parish projects that need a small, clean stone with controlled sizing, #8 is often the right answer. Call if you are not sure whether #8 or #57 better fits what your spec is asking for.
