Armor Stone (Limestone) - 20" to 30"

Armor stone in a 20" to 30" size range, crafted from durable limestone, is a premium construction aggregate designed for heavy-duty protection and structural stability. This material consists of large, angular limestone boulders, typically quarried and shaped to withstand harsh environmental conditions and significant physical impact.

The substantial 20" to 30" size makes these stones ideal for erosion control, shoreline protection, and retaining wall construction, where mass and stability are critical. Limestone's natural density and weather resistance enhance its longevity, making it a preferred choice for both residential and commercial projects such as seawalls, outcropping features, and landscape accents. While the large size offers excellent resistance to displacement and water flow, it requires machinery for installation and is not suitable for compacted surfaces or small-scale DIY projects.
