Australian Grade Bitumen C600

Australian Grade Bitumen C600 Description

Australian Grade Bitumen C600 is a highly rigid bitumen grade with the ability to resist extreme stress and high temperatures. It is ideal for very severe environments such as major highways, industrial roads, and areas exposed to high-intensity heat and heavy traffic because of its stiffness, which provides superior resistance to rutting and surface deformation.

The desert, northern Australia, and also other industrial zones in worst environments widely use this bitumen. Excellent resistance from the extremes of temperatures, with heavy loads, means durability on the pavement for longer; the result is a decrease in costs over large periods. It provides better longevity to wearing courses against any further deterioration on the surface under challenging climates.

Applications of Australian Grade Bitumen C600

Bitumen C600 is widely used by engineers in areas with extreme weather conditions, such as arid zones and Northern Australia. The bitumen class has resistance to deformation and softening even under extreme temperatures and heavy traffic. It plays a major role in the construction of highways, airports, and industrial infrastructure. Professionals also use the product as a binder in hot-mix asphalt and in the production of cutback, emulsion, and modified bitumen.

Packing Details

We pack Bitumen C600 in sturdy drums of 0.6 mm thickness. Each drum weighs 182 kg, with a height of 95 cm and a diameter of 45 cm. A tolerance of +/- 3 kgs allows for a margin of quality.

Health & Safety

Bitumen C600 does not present significant health or safety hazards when used according to recommendations and in conformity with good industrial practice. Recommended guidelines for handling and application should be followed to maintain a safe working environment.
