Cutback Bitumen – Rapid Curing

RC-30, RC-70, RC-250, RC-800 and RC-3000

Tiger Brand Cutback Bitumen Rapid Curing (RC) Grade is a combination of light diluents of high volatility, generally in the gasoline or naphtha boiling point range (RC-30, RC-70, RC-250, RC-800 and RC-3000), and asphalt cement.

The degree of liquidity developed in each case depends principally on the proportion of solvent to asphalt cement. To a minor degree, the liquidity of the cutback may be affected by the hardness of the base asphalt from which the cutback is made. The degree of fluidity results in several Grades of Cutback asphalt—some quite fluid at ordinary temperatures and others somewhat more viscous. The more viscous grades may require a small amount of heating to make them fluid enough for construction operations.

The Rapid-Setting Grades are designed to react quickly primarily for spray applications, such as bond/tack coats, aggregate chips seals, sand seals and similar surface treatments.

HY International has the capability to Export and Supply the different Grades of Rapid Curing Cutback Bitumen in compliance with National and International standards.
