What is Bitumen 150/5?

Oxidized Bitumen 150/5 is an air-blown bitumen grade with a softening point near 150°C and a penetration value around 5 (0.1mm). As the hardest grade in the oxidized bitumen range, it is solid, brittle, and highly resistant to heat, weathering, and deformation under extreme conditions worldwide.

Oxidized Bitumen 150/5 is used in roofing, pipe coating, and paint manufacturing for hot climates where extreme heat resistance is essential. Its hardness and high softening point also suit corrosion-resistant coatings, electrical laminate adhesives, and industrial applications requiring long-term stability under intense, extreme thermal exposure worldwide.

Black Rock Bitumen supplies Oxidized Bitumen 150/5 tested to ASTM standards, ensuring consistent softening point, penetration, and hardness in every shipment. Sourced from certified refineries and shipped through our Dubai logistics hub, our Oxidized Bitumen 150/5 delivers dependable, export-grade performance for the most extreme industrial applications.

Advantages of Bitumen 150/5

Bitumen 150/5 serves a wide spectrum of construction, industrial, and infrastructure

High Heat Stability

Extraordinary softening point of 145–155°C — the highest available in standard oxidized bitumen grades, suitable for extreme industrial thermal environments

Ultra-Rigid Structure

Ultra-low penetration of 5–10 dmm — essentially a solid, glass-hard material at ambient temperature

High Electrical Insulation

Exceptional electrical insulation properties: very high surface resistivity, low dielectric constant, and low loss factor

Superior Chemical Resistance

Outstanding chemical resistance to concentrated acids, alkalis, solvents, and aggressive process media

Low Temperature Sensitivity

Negligible temperature susceptibility below 120°C — properties virtually unchanged across wide temperature range

Bio & Bacterial Resistance

Excellent resistance to bacterial and biological degradation in chemical waste and process environments

    Frequently Asked Questions.

    Oxidized Bitumen Grade 150/5 is a high softening-point bitumen offering excellent hardness, thermal stability, and long-term resistance to deformation, ideal for industrial and waterproofing applications.

    Bitumen 150/5 is the hardest standard oxidized bitumen grade, with a softening point of 150°C and penetration of just 5 dmm, designed for the most extreme heat-resistance requirements.

    It is used in specialty industrial applications such as battery compound manufacturing, high-temperature sealants, and other niche uses requiring maximum hardness and heat stability.

    Its very high softening point and extremely low penetration place it well beyond standard roofing or pipe coating grades, making it suited only to specific industrial formulations that require maximum rigidity and heat resistance.

    Bitumen 150/5 has a significantly higher softening point and lower penetration than 115/15, making it the hardest and most heat-resistant grade in the oxidized bitumen range.

    Due to its high hardness, Bitumen 150/5 typically requires higher processing temperatures than standard oxidized grades; exact parameters depend on the specific industrial formulation and equipment used.

    Bitumen 150/5 is typically tested per ASTM D312 for softening point, penetration, and related specialty industrial specifications.

    Store in a cool, dry, covered area away from heat sources, in sealed drums or blocks to prevent contamination and maintain product hardness.
