Rip Rap Limestone in 2" to 3" Size Range

Rip Rap limestone in a 2" to 3" size range is a durable, angular stone product specifically designed for erosion control and heavy-duty stabilization projects. Produced by quarrying and crushing high-quality limestone, this material offers excellent resistance to weathering and water flow, making it ideal for demanding environments.

The 2" to 3" size range provides a balance between effective coverage and ease of handling. This mid-sized rip rap is large enough to resist displacement from flowing water, yet small enough for precise placement along shorelines, culverts, and embankments. Common applications include protecting stream banks, reinforcing drainage channels, and stabilizing slopes in both residential and commercial settings. The limestone attribute ensures a long-lasting, natural appearance and superior structural integrity. While this size is not suitable for compacted surfaces, it excels in situations where drainage and erosion control are priorities.
