Rip Rap (Class 50 (100Lb, 200 Lb)
Applications & Uses
Rip Rap in Class 50 (100Lb, 200 Lb) Size Range
Rip Rap in the Class 50 size range consists of large, durable stones weighing between 100 and 200 pounds each. This material is typically produced by quarrying and breaking down larger rock formations into angular pieces, ensuring stability and resistance to movement.
The substantial size of Class 50 Rip Rap makes it ideal for heavy-duty erosion control and shoreline protection. Its weight and angularity help it lock together, providing excellent resistance against water flow and wave action. Common applications include stabilizing riverbanks, protecting bridge abutments, reinforcing culverts, and lining channels or shorelines. While its large size offers superior protection and longevity, it is not suitable for areas requiring compaction or a smooth finish. Instead, it excels in projects where maximum stability and erosion resistance are critical.
