Rip Rap (1″ To 2.5″)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap in a 1" to 2.5" Size Range
Rip Rap in the 1" to 2.5" size range is a durable, coarse aggregate composed of crushed stone or rock. This material is produced by mechanically breaking down larger rocks into angular pieces, resulting in a rugged texture that interlocks well when placed.
The 1" to 2.5" size range offers a balance between stability and coverage, making it ideal for erosion control on slopes, shorelines, and drainage channels. Its substantial size resists displacement from water flow, while still being manageable for installation in both residential and commercial settings. Common uses include protecting culvert inlets and outlets, reinforcing embankments, and creating decorative landscape features. While this size provides excellent drainage and erosion resistance, it is less suitable for areas requiring a smooth, compacted surface.
