Rip Rap (Type A, Black)

Rip Rap Type A in a striking black color is a large, durable stone aggregate designed for heavy-duty erosion control and stabilization projects. Produced by quarrying and breaking down hard rock, this material features irregular, angular pieces that interlock for maximum stability. The "Type A" size range refers to larger stones, typically 6 to 12 inches in diameter, making it ideal for high-energy environments where smaller aggregates would be displaced.
