Rip Rap (2′ To 5′)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap in a 2' to 5' Size Range
Rip Rap in a 2' to 5' size range is a large, durable aggregate commonly used for heavy-duty erosion control and shoreline stabilization. Produced from natural stone, these massive rocks are selected and sized to withstand the force of moving water and prevent soil displacement in high-impact environments.
The substantial 2' to 5' size makes this Rip Rap ideal for projects requiring maximum resistance to water flow and wave action, such as protecting riverbanks, lake shores, bridge abutments, and large drainage channels. Its weight and angularity help lock the stones in place, reducing the risk of washout and providing long-term stability. While its size makes it less suitable for decorative or compacted surfaces, it excels in structural and environmental applications where strength and durability are critical.
