Crack Sealing

Hot Rubberized Crack Sealing
We use Federal Specifications for Crack Sealing

 






ASTM D3405 is the only crack sealant we use. It seals cracks in asphalt and concrete from the intrusion of water and other foreign materials. 

D-3405 has a superior adhesion quality and lasts much longer.  The material is flexible, even in cold weather.  Lower cost materials get hard and crack in the cold.


Specifications:

  • All materials meet ASTM D-3405 standard.
  • Cracks are cleaned thoroughly before the sealant is applied.
  • Crack "fillers" such as AC-oil & cold pour crack filler are not used.  
  • The material meeting D-3405 is heated in an indirect fired kettle designed specifically for this purpose.
  • Sealant is placed using the "over-seal-banding" technique. (Sealant fills the crack and about 1 inch on each side of the pavement.)
