Rip Rap (3/8″ To 2.5″)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap in a 3/8" to 2.5" Size Range
Rip Rap in the 3/8" to 2.5" size range is a versatile aggregate composed of durable, angular stones. Produced by mechanically breaking down larger rocks, this material is designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions and resist erosion. The varied size range allows for effective interlocking between stones, enhancing stability and coverage.
This specific size of Rip Rap is ideal for both residential and commercial applications where moderate erosion control and decorative appeal are needed. Common uses include lining drainage ditches, protecting shorelines, reinforcing slopes, and creating natural-looking landscape features. The smaller end of the size range offers better compaction and coverage, while the larger stones provide structural integrity. While not as compactable as finer aggregates, this Rip Rap excels in promoting drainage and preventing soil displacement, making it a reliable choice for erosion-prone areas.
