Trap Rock (3″ To 6″)
Applications & Uses
Trap Rock in a 3" to 6" Size Range
Trap rock in the 3" to 6" size range is a highly durable, angular aggregate produced from the crushing of dense, fine-grained igneous rock. This material is known for its exceptional hardness and resistance to weathering, making it a reliable choice for demanding construction applications.
The large 3" to 6" size is ideal for projects requiring substantial weight and stability. Its angular shape helps it lock together, providing excellent erosion control and structural support. Common uses include riprap for shoreline and slope protection, base layers for heavy-duty roads, and stabilization of embankments. While its size makes it less suitable for compacted surfaces or decorative landscaping, it excels in applications where drainage, durability, and resistance to displacement are critical.
