Overview

Hard, stable and heat resistant

Bitumen 90/15 is a hard oxidized bitumen made by blowing air through straight-run bitumen at controlled temperature. The grade name gives the softening point (90°C) and penetration (15 dmm).

Its rigid structure and low temperature susceptibility keep it stable under heat and mechanical stress, where softer oxidized grades would flow.

Black Rock Bitumen supplies Bitumen 90/15 from Dubai to manufacturers, contractors and EPC companies across Africa, Asia and the Middle East.

  • High softening point
  • Low penetration and rigid structure
  • Resistance to flow and deformation under heat
  • Suited to sealing, insulation and coating use
  • Consistent quality in every batch
