Alkenza supplies Bitumen 100/120 for flexible pavement and road construction projects worldwide. Bitumen 100/120 is a penetration grade bitumen with a penetration range of 100-120 at 25 degrees Celsius, representing a softer grade ideal for moderate climate conditions. This softer binder provides excellent flexibility and fatigue resistance, making it particularly suitable for roads subject to temperature variations. Available in steel drums, jumbo bags, and bulk tanker with FOB and CIF delivery worldwide.
Bitumen 100/120 is a penetration grade bitumen with penetration values of 100-120 tenths of a millimeter at 25 degrees Celsius. This softer grade offers excellent flexibility and fatigue resistance, making it ideal for flexible pavement construction in moderate climate regions. It is widely used in highway construction, urban road networks, and airport runway paving. Bitumen 100/120 is supplied in bulk tankers, steel drums, and jumbo bags with FOB and CIF delivery options to global markets including South Asia, Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
Bitumen 100/120 is a penetration grade bitumen classified according to its hardness at 25 degrees Celsius, measured in tenths of a millimeter. The penetration value of 100-120 indicates a softer consistency compared to harder grades, providing excellent flexibility and fatigue resistance for flexible pavement construction.
The 100/120 grade is produced through petroleum refining, where crude oil is distilled to separate the bituminous fraction. The resulting product is carefully tested to ensure it meets the specified penetration range, providing consistent quality for road construction applications.
Bitumen 100/120 is widely used for flexible pavement in moderate climate regions. Its softer consistency provides superior resistance to cracking and deformation, making it ideal for roads subject to temperature fluctuations and heavy traffic loads.
Excellent for flexible road surfaces.
Temperature variation resistant.
Superior crack resistance.
Easy mixing and compaction.
