Rip Rap (Class 2 (9″ To 23″)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap in Class 2 (9" to 23") Size Range
Rip Rap in the Class 2 size range (9" to 23") 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 Class 2 size range is ideal for heavy-duty applications where significant protection is needed, such as reinforcing riverbanks, protecting bridge abutments, and lining large drainage channels. The large stone size allows for excellent energy dissipation, reducing the impact of flowing water and preventing soil loss. While its bulk makes it less suitable for decorative or compacted surfaces, it excels in structural and environmental protection projects, making it a top choice for both commercial and municipal applications.
