Rip Rap (R-6 (24″ Minus), White)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap R-6 (24" Minus), White
Rip Rap in the R-6 (24" minus) size range is a large, durable stone aggregate commonly used for erosion control and shoreline stabilization. This material consists of angular or irregularly shaped stones, each up to 24 inches in diameter, and is typically produced by quarrying and breaking down larger rock formations. The white color offers a clean, bright appearance that can enhance the visual appeal of landscaping and water management projects.
The substantial size of R-6 Rip Rap makes it highly effective at dissipating water energy, preventing soil loss, and protecting embankments, culverts, and shorelines from erosion. Its weight and angularity help it lock in place, even under heavy water flow, making it ideal for both residential and commercial applications such as retaining walls, stormwater channels, and lakefronts. While its large size provides excellent stability and longevity, it is less suitable for areas requiring a smooth or compacted surface. The white color can also serve decorative purposes in high-visibility installations.
