Rip Rap (3″ To 8″, Clean)
Applications & Uses
Clean Rip Rap in a 3" to 8" Size Range
Clean rip rap in a 3" to 8" size range is a large, angular stone aggregate commonly used for erosion control and heavy-duty stabilization projects. Produced by quarrying and screening durable rock, this material is free from fines and debris, ensuring optimal performance in demanding environments.
The 3" to 8" size range provides substantial mass and interlocking capability, making it ideal for protecting shorelines, culvert outlets, slopes, and embankments from water or wind erosion. The "clean" attribute means the stones are washed and free of smaller particles, which enhances drainage and reduces the risk of clogging in water management applications. While its large size makes it less suitable for compacted surfaces or decorative landscaping, clean rip rap is a top choice for both residential and commercial projects requiring robust, long-lasting protection against erosion.
