Asphalt Crack SealingThe effective preventive Asphalt Crack Sealing method for minimizing reflective cracking to the fresh asphalt wearing course and simply saving the new budget & investment.
Preventing CracksRouting and/or grinding of the existing crack to create a reservoir approx. 5 mm more than the proportional width of the crack for the sealant settlement to ensure sealant won’t pop out of the crack after application. Once opened, the area and inside shall be cleaned thoroughly by either manually such as normal or metal brush, sweeping, or compressed air.
Preventing CracksThe Crafco Matrix 502 Asphaltic Plug Bridge Joint System is a hot-applied field-molded and constructed expansion joint system that is primarily composed of a uniquely formulated polymer modified asphalt binder that is mixed with specially selected and processed aggregate.
