Rip Rap (4″ To 8″)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap in a 4" to 8" Size Range
Rip Rap in the 4" to 8" size range is a large, durable aggregate commonly produced from natural stone or crushed rock. These hefty stones are specifically sized to provide robust erosion control and slope stabilization, making them a reliable choice for demanding environments.
The substantial 4" to 8" size ensures excellent resistance to water flow and wave action, preventing soil displacement and protecting shorelines, culvert inlets, and embankments. This size is ideal for both residential and commercial projects requiring heavy-duty protection, such as retaining walls, drainage channels, and stormwater management systems. While its large size makes it less suitable for compacted surfaces or decorative landscaping, it excels in applications where strength and stability are paramount.
