Overview

The stiffest binder for extreme heat

Bitumen C600 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 (C600 = about 600 Pa·s).

Its very high viscosity gives the stiffest binder in the range, built for extreme pavement temperatures, slow or standing traffic and heavy axle loads.

Black Rock Bitumen supplies Bitumen C600 from Dubai to contractors, EPC companies and asphalt producers across Africa, Asia, Oceania and the Middle East.

  • Very high viscosity for maximum rut resistance
  • Stays stiff in extreme pavement temperatures
  • Suited to heavy-duty and high-stress pavements
  • Durable under slow, standing and heavy traffic
  • Consistent quality in every batch
