Rip Rap (1″)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap in a 1" Size Range
Rip Rap in a 1" size range is a durable, coarse aggregate commonly used for erosion control and stabilization projects. Produced by crushing and screening natural stone, this material features irregular, angular pieces that interlock effectively when placed, providing a stable barrier against water and soil movement.
The 1" size is smaller than traditional rip rap, making it ideal for projects where a finer, more compact layer is needed without sacrificing strength. This size is particularly useful for lining small drainage ditches, protecting garden beds, or reinforcing the edges of residential ponds and culverts. Its angular shape ensures excellent resistance to displacement, while the smaller size allows for easier handling and installation in tight or detailed areas. While it offers less visual impact than larger rip rap, the 1" size is easier to work with and still provides reliable protection against erosion.
