“This order of number 8 stone lasted us most of the pour season, nine tons total, mixed into concrete for four footings out at the shop and a handful of smaller jobs since. Montana Rock Supply had it ready for pickup the same day I called, and there was enough left over for a couple of fence post pours too.”

Everything You Need to Know About #8 Crushed Stone
Size and Grading
- Size
- About 3/8 inch to 1/2 inch
- Grading
- #8, clean with little to no fines
- Type
- Crushed stone
A finished hardscape can keep a neat, distinct stone texture when #8 Crushed Stone stays in the role intended for it. Its crushed pieces contain few fines, so it does not act like a soil-rich fill. That makes it a sound choice for drain details, concrete mixes, and paver construction where a small stone belongs in the assembly.
East of the Continental Divide, gumbo clay can hold water around a project; valley ground west of it may shed water more readily. In either setting, account for deep frost and give drainage details a deliberate outlet. For paver construction, place this material only where the design calls for a free-draining stone course or joint material, keeping it separated from surrounding soil.

Customer Reviews
Chip seal prep, truck ran late
Two and a half tons for chip seal prep on our lane near Sidney. Right size, spread evenly, held up through a dusty summer. Delivery truck came a bit later than the stated window though.

Walkway holds up through plow season
Six tons went down as the top layer on a walkway connecting our shop to the parking area out on the Hi-Line near Havre. Foot friendly, packs tight enough that delivery carts roll across it fine, and it hasn't shifted or scattered even with plow work nearby all winter. Montana Rock Supply quoted a fair price per ton compared to the co-op.

One Load Covered A Full Pour Season
This order of number 8 stone lasted us most of the pour season, nine tons total, mixed into concrete for four footings out at the shop and a handful of smaller jobs since. Montana Rock Supply had it ready for pickup the same day I called, and there was enough left over for a couple of fence post pours too.

Right size, load ran wet
Used seven tons for pipe bedding on a drain tile project out toward the Rocky Mountain Front near Conrad. Material from Montana Rock Supply was exactly the size we needed and settled in well. The only complaint is the load arrived a little wetter than expected, which made it heavier to shovel than I planned for on a windy afternoon.

Clean pipe bedding, no voids later
We laid about four hundred feet of drain pipe for a client outside Lewistown this spring and used eighteen tons of the number eight for bedding around the pipe before backfilling. It settled around the pipe evenly with no voids when we came back to check the trench a month later after a stretch of heavy rain. The crushed size is small enough to pack tight but clean enough that it didn't clog the perforations. Driver split the load between two access points on the property so we didn't have to haul it by wheelbarrow across the whole yard, which saved us most of a day.
