Rip Rap (Type B, Black)

Rip Rap Type B in Black

Rip Rap Type B in a striking black color is a large, durable aggregate commonly used for erosion control and shoreline protection. Produced by crushing and screening hard rock, this material features irregular, angular pieces that interlock for superior stability. The Type B size range refers to medium-to-large stones, typically used where substantial protection against water or wind erosion is required.




The black coloration offers a distinctive, modern appearance, making it suitable for both functional and decorative applications. Type B Rip Rap is ideal for lining drainage channels, reinforcing embankments, protecting culverts, and creating retaining walls. Its size and angularity provide excellent resistance to displacement, while the larger stones allow for effective water flow and reduced washout. While its bulk makes it less suitable for compacted surfaces or pedestrian areas, it excels in heavy-duty, high-exposure environments where durability and visual impact are priorities.
