Crusher Dust Purple/Red
$40.00 per t
Purple/Red Crusher Dust is a cost-effective alternative to standard crusher dust, consisting of fine stone particles and dust created during the crushing process of quarried rock. This material typically ranges from dust particles up to approximately 5mm, providing excellent compaction properties when moisture is applied. The occasional purple or red coloration occurs naturally due to iron oxide and mineral content in the source rock. It offers the same binding and leveling characteristics as conventional crusher dust at a reduced price point.
