Bitumer TB90 asphalt tape

  • Filling material for horizontal joints
  • Perfect for filling gaps in asphalt and concrete roadways
  • Prevents water from being absorbed between the asphalt layers to prevent damage
  • Mass resistant to acids and basesBitumen-polymer self-adhesive tape BITUMER T90, rolled material consisting of petroleum bitumen, polymer and texturising agents.

Usage:

Sealing tape designed for sealing in transportation construction:

  • for jointing asphalt layers made at different times, transverse and longitudinal jointing
  • It is also used to connect different materials, e.g. asphalt concrete layer with poured asphalt layer, as well as asphalt layer with external devices, e.g. gullies, manholes and other elements of infrastructure built into the road surface or limiting it (curbs, drainage elements, rails)

BASE PREPARATION

The asphalt pavement to which the tape is attached should be cleaned of dust, dirt, debris, oils prior to application. In wet or icy conditions, treat the surface with compressed air.

The crack area to be bridged should be dry and free of loose parts.

PRODUCT PREPARATION

When the tape is stored in a warehouse with an ambient temperature below 0 °C, it shall be inspected in a room with an ambient temperature of 15-20 °C at least 24 hours before laying.

APPLICATION

Remove the tape rolls from the packages and remove the protective release agent. Apply tape to the face of the crack and adhere it by hand or with labor-saving tools.

Application operations should be carried out at an ambient temperature of +5 °C or higher. For temperatures below +10 °C, use a propane torch to heat the surface of the asphalt to increase the bond strength of the tape.

Asphalt tape is a modern, unique product used to repair small horizontal joints in asphalt or concrete. Its use is not complicated, and it guarantees permanent crack sealing and pavement leveling. Learn about its unique properties and be able to use it on construction sites, on road repair jobs or in your own home.

What is an asphalt tape?

The material of the tape is asphalt with the addition of elastic substances and various binders. Its main component can also be different types of bitumen and then this type of tape is called bituminous. There are also expansion joint tapes made of bitumen modified with various polymers and additional substances.
All components of the product are high quality substances, thanks to which it can withstand very high loads, does not pass water and is resistant to salts, acids, alkalis and all weather conditions.

APPLICATIONS OF ASPHALT TAPES

Asphalt tape is designed to seal and bond together cracks formed on asphalt or concrete surfaces. Its purpose is also to prevent water from seeping into the space it fills and to stop further pavement cracking in the future. This includes situations where there is a need to connect an asphalt pavement to a concrete pavement or two sections made of asphalt, one of which was constructed earlier than the other. The tape is also used to connect asphalt roads to various elements of road infrastructure such as manholes, rails, sewer manholes and curbs.
Use the tape to repair asphalt roads, sidewalks, driveways, roofs, sports fields, parking lots and any other surface made of concrete or asphalt.
Road builders, construction workers, airport pavement maintainers, and even the tool-wielding do-it-yourselfer use tape. This effective, easy-to-use material provides lasting results for years to come.

How does bitumen tape work?

To seal the cavity and prevent further deterioration of the surface, first clean the cavity of dirt, debris and dust that can reduce the effectiveness of the tape. The crack should also be completely dry and degreased. Then you need to glue a piece of tape along the gap and fuse it to the pavement. A torch or hot mix asphalt mix can be used for the job. After being pressed with a roller, the substance solidifies and when its temperature becomes low enough to be easily touched with the hand, the repair process is complete.

Asphalt tape is easy to use, and requires no special skills. It produces quick results. The substance hardens quickly and fills cavities thoroughly, leaving virtually no trace. It guarantees professional and lasting effect.
