Cutback Bitumen RC-250 is a rapid-curing asphalt that complies with ASTM D2028-97 for pavement construction and treatment. It is produced by blending penetration-grade bitumen with solvents like kerosene, gasoline, or naphtha, controlling the curing time. Cutback asphalt contains 12-40% distillates, but due to high energy demands and air quality regulations, its usage has declined. RC-250 can contain up to 45% distillate and is mainly used for spraying and some mixing applications. Manufactured from vacuum residue, it exhibits thermoplastic properties, softening at high temperatures and hardening at lower ones, ensuring durability and strong adhesion.
RABIT RC – 250, suitable for use in the construction & maintenance of pavement as designated in ASTM D2399, it is ideal for tack coats.
RABIT RC – 250 is applied to asphalt or granular surfaces using truck mounted spray equipment.
