Slag #53

#53 slag is a dense graded aggregate made from processed steel slag, typically ranging from 1 1/2 inches down to fines. This well-balanced blend compacts tightly, forming a strong, stable base that resists shifting and rutting under traffic. The combination of larger stone and fine particles allows it to lock together effectively, delivering high load-bearing strength and long-term durability.

Because of its density and compaction properties, #53 slag is widely used in structural base applications where performance and stability are critical.

Common applications for #53 slag

• Road base and highway construction
• Driveways and access roads
• Parking lots and traffic areas
• Base layer under asphalt or concrete
