Rip Rap (Odot) in 6" to 18" Size Range

Rip Rap with Odot specification in a 6" to 18" size range is a large, durable aggregate commonly used for erosion control and shoreline stabilization. Produced by crushing and screening natural stone, this material is engineered to meet Ohio Department of Transportation (Odot) standards, ensuring consistent quality and performance for demanding applications.

The substantial 6" to 18" size range provides excellent resistance to displacement by water or wind, making it ideal for protecting riverbanks, culvert outlets, bridge abutments, and slopes from erosion. Its large, irregular pieces interlock to form a stable barrier, while the Odot specification guarantees reliable sizing and durability. While this size is not suitable for compacted surfaces or decorative landscaping, it excels in heavy-duty applications where long-term stability and protection are critical.
