Rip Rap (Medium, Yellow)
Applications & Uses
Medium Yellow Rip Rap
Medium yellow rip rap is a durable, angular stone commonly used for erosion control and heavy-duty landscaping. Sourced from natural quarries, this material is characterized by its distinctive yellow hue and medium-sized pieces, typically ranging from 6 to 12 inches in diameter. The unique color adds a decorative touch, making it suitable for projects where aesthetics are as important as function.
The medium size offers an effective balance between stability and coverage, making it ideal for lining shorelines, stabilizing slopes, and protecting culverts or embankments from water erosion. Its substantial weight and angular shape help lock the stones in place, reducing movement even under heavy water flow. While its size makes it less suitable for compacted surfaces or pathways, medium yellow rip rap excels in both residential and commercial applications where robust erosion control and visual appeal are desired.
