Overview

About this product

Crusher dust is the fine byproduct of rock crushing, particles from about 5mm down to dust, and one of the most useful materials on any site. It screeds flat, compacts hard, and forms a firm, stable bed under pavers, slabs and tanks.

Plumbers use it for haunching and trench finishing; landscapers for paths and as a base under synthetic turf; civil crews as a binding layer over coarse fills. Economical, consistent and available everywhere we deliver.

Common questions

What is crusher dust used for?
A fine crushed rock used as a bedding and packing material under pavers and pipes, and as a binding fill that compacts to a firm surface.
Does it drain?
It holds fines and compacts tight, so it binds rather than drains. Choose a washed aggregate where free drainage is needed.
How is it delivered, and can I track it?
We deliver Victoria-wide by tipper, truck and trailer or truck and quad depending on your access and quantity. Every load is GPS-tracked in NXT Control so you can see it from the weighbridge to your gate.
