Drain Rock (4″ To 6″, Erosion)
Applications & Uses
4" to 6" Drain Rock for Erosion Control
4" to 6" drain rock with erosion control properties is a large, durable aggregate specifically designed to manage water flow and prevent soil displacement. Produced from natural stone, this material is screened to ensure consistent sizing, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications where stability and drainage are critical.
The substantial 4" to 6" size range allows these rocks to resist being washed away during heavy rainfall or high water events, making them highly effective for erosion control along slopes, embankments, culverts, and drainage channels. Their large size creates voids that facilitate rapid water movement while anchoring soil in place, reducing the risk of washouts. Commonly used in both residential and commercial settings, this drain rock is a top choice for shoreline protection, stormwater management, and retaining wall backfill. While its size makes it less suitable for compacted surfaces or decorative landscaping, it excels in providing long-lasting, low-maintenance erosion control.
