APPLICATION

POUR:

Fill the hole with CEMIX BITUPATCH Make the middle slightly higher than the sides (this is called crowning) Depending on the size of the repair give yourself a 5 – 10mm crown This will counteract the subsidence caused by compacting.

COMPACT:

For best results and performance, compact with a mechanical vibrating plate compactor or steel wheel roller Smaller areas can be compacted with any large heavy flat item such as large timber posts, compressed using a rubber mallet.

SUBSTRATE PREPARATION

Thoroughly clean the area to be filled so as to remove all loose and deleterious materials and debris. If possible create a vertical edge to the hole for the CEMIX BITUPATCH to butt up against.

TECHNICAL DATA

• Appearance – Black Tar
• Application Temp – 5ºC – 30ºC
• Yield / Coverage – One 20kg bag will produce asphalt approximately equivalent to 0.0018m³. (500m x 500mm x 30mm).
• Packaging – 20kg weather resistant bags.
• The data shown above reflects typical results based on laboratory testing under controlled conditions. Reasonable variations may occur on site.

LIMITATIONS

CEMIX BITUPATCH can be applied between 5°C – 30°C; however, for best performance, compaction and workability, use CEMIX BITUPATCH between air temperatures ranging from 21°C – 30°C. A vibratory steel wheel roller will always provide optimum results and performance; however, steel wheel or pneumatic rollers, compactor plates, wheel rolling, and hand tamping are also acceptable methods of compaction.

STORAGE & SHELF LIFE

Store CEMIX BITUPATCH in a cool dry area and use within 12 months.

CLEANING

Clean all tools with water and a still bristled brush immediately after use.
