Bitumen C240 for sprayed seals and general paving. Exported from Dubai.
A balanced medium-viscosity binder made to AS 2008. For sprayed seals and general paving.
A balanced binder for general road work
Bitumen C240 is an Australian-standard residual bitumen graded by viscosity at 60°C under AS 2008. The class number is the nominal viscosity in pascal-seconds (C240 = about 240 Pa·s).
Its mid-range viscosity balances workability during paving with resistance to rutting in service, which makes it a common choice for general pavement construction.
Black Rock Bitumen supplies Bitumen C240 from Dubai to contractors, EPC companies and asphalt producers across Africa, Asia, Oceania and the Middle East.
- Balanced viscosity for paving and service life
- Good adhesion to aggregate
- Suited to a wide range of road projects
- Good resistance to cracking and rutting
- Consistent quality in every batch
