Rip Rap (3/4″ To 1.5″)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap in a 3/4" to 1.5" Size Range
Rip Rap in the 3/4" to 1.5" size range is a durable, coarse aggregate composed of natural stone fragments. This material is typically produced by quarrying and breaking down larger rocks into angular pieces, ensuring strength and stability for demanding applications.
The 3/4" to 1.5" size range offers a balance between effective erosion control and ease of handling. These mid-sized stones interlock well, making them ideal for stabilizing slopes, lining drainage ditches, and protecting shorelines from water erosion. In residential and commercial projects, this Rip Rap is commonly used for landscape edging, garden beds, and as a base layer for retaining walls. Its angular shape provides excellent resistance to movement, but it may be less suitable for areas requiring a smooth, walkable surface. Overall, this size of Rip Rap is valued for its versatility, durability, and reliable performance in both functional and decorative applications.
