Multiply length × width × depth in feet, divide by 27 for cubic yards, then multiply by 1.45 to get tons of #67 stone. A 15 × 8 ft area at 3 inches deep needs about 1.1 cubic yards — roughly 1.6 tons.

#67 Stone Calculator Guide
#67 stone is the smaller, more uniform sibling of #57 — washed crushed stone running from about 3/4 inch down to 3/8 inch, with most pieces clustering around half an inch. That tighter, smaller gradation makes it the standard coarse aggregate in ready-mix concrete and the go-to stone for pipe bedding and surround, where #57’s larger pieces can leave gaps too big for the job. This calculator uses its standard density of 1.45 tons per cubic yard.
Like #57, it’s washed clean of fines, so the estimating math is a straightforward volume-to-weight conversion — no compaction correction needed, because open-graded stone doesn’t meaningfully densify.
#67 vs #57: What Actually Changes?
| #57 Stone | #67 Stone | |
|---|---|---|
| Size range | 1/2–1 in | 3/8–3/4 in |
| Density | 1.45 t/yd³ | 1.45 t/yd³ |
| Best for | French drains, driveway surface, larger voids | Concrete mix, pipe bedding, finer drainage |
| Compacts? | No — open-graded | No — open-graded |
The density is identical, so the tonnage math doesn’t change between them — the decision comes down to what the void size needs to be, not weight.
Where #67 Stone Earns Its Spot
- Ready-mix concrete: the coarse aggregate in most standard concrete mixes, chosen for its consistent, workable gradation.
- Pipe bedding and surround: small enough to nest closely around pipe without large voids, while still draining freely.
- Fine drainage layers: where #57’s bigger stones would leave openings too large for the filter fabric or application.
If your project needs a load-bearing compacted base rather than a drainage or bedding layer, neither #57 nor #67 is the right call — see the crusher run calculator for dense-graded material that actually compacts solid.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size is #67 stone?
#67 is washed crushed stone running from about 3/4 inch down to 3/8 inch — smaller and more uniform than #57, which tops out closer to 1 inch. Both are open-graded and washed clean of fines.
What is #67 stone used for?
It’s the standard aggregate in ready-mix concrete, pipe bedding and surround, and as a finer drainage stone where #57’s larger pieces would leave gaps too big for the application.
Does #67 stone compact?
No — like #57, it’s washed free of fines and stays open-graded, so it interlocks but never densifies into a load-bearing base. Use crusher run where compaction strength is the goal.
How much does #67 stone weigh?
About 1.45 US tons per cubic yard, the same as #57 — the smaller stone size doesn’t change the density meaningfully since both are washed and open-graded.
