Crusher run usually refers to unscreened crushed stone, which is the direct product of the crusher.

Source: It is mainly obtained by mechanical crushing of large rocks, and may contain crushed stone particles of different sizes, as well as a certain amount of stone powder and soil.
 
Gravel refers to small stone fragments, which are often used to pave the surface of roads or paths.
Source: It can be formed in the natural environment, such as a small stone covering on a riverbed, beach or hill, or it can be obtained by artificial crushing and screening.
 
The appearance of crusher run may not be uniform because it contains crushed stone particles of different sizes. It has good permeability and drainage performance, and because it contains stone powder and soil, it has good compaction and stability.
 
Gravel particles are usually relatively uniform, with a relatively smooth surface and no sharp edges. Gravel also has good permeability and drainage performance, and because of the large friction between its particles, it has good anti-skid performance.
 
Crusher run is often used to pave road bases, parking lots, sidewalks and other places. It can also be used as a filling material for construction foundations, foundation reinforcement and other projects.
 
Gravel is widely used in paving road surfaces, garden paths, garden landscapes, etc. It can also be used as a concrete batching, road base material, etc.
