Cutback Bitumen
Medium Curing – Cutback MC 30
Medium Curing 30 (MC30 ) a combination of penetration grade asphalt cement and a diluent or cutter highly rapid in its volatility making it easier to apply. Cut back MC30 is compliant with ASTM standard for cut back asphalt.
Cutback SC 30
Rapid Curing 30 SC30 combination of penetration grade asphalt cement and a diluent or cutter highly rapid in its volatility making it easier to apply. Cut back SC30is compliant with ASTM standard for cut back asphalt.
Cutback RC 800
Rapid Curing 800 RC800 a combination of penetration grade asphalt cement and a diluent or cutter highly rapid in its volatility making it easier to apply.
Uses
MC30 grade is used in the construction of roads and highways and for treatment for pavements in compliance with ASTM. MC30 is also commonly used in spraying and for applications of mixing.
