Rip Rap (Class 2 (12″ To 18″)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap Class 2 (12" to 18")
Rip Rap in the Class 2 size range (12" to 18") is a large, durable stone product commonly used for erosion control and shoreline stabilization. Produced by quarrying and breaking down larger rock, these stones are selected for their substantial size and weight, which help them resist displacement by water or wind.
The 12" to 18" size range is ideal for heavy-duty applications where significant protection is needed, such as reinforcing riverbanks, protecting bridge abutments, or lining large drainage channels. This size provides excellent stability and energy dissipation, making it effective at preventing soil loss and structural damage in high-flow or high-impact environments. While its large size makes it less suitable for decorative or compacted surfaces, Class 2 Rip Rap is a top choice for robust, long-lasting erosion control in both residential and commercial projects.
