Penetration Grade Bitumen is commonly used in road construction, surfacing, and some industrial applications. Additional processing of this type of Bitumen yields various grades of Bitumen products. The Penetration Test determines the hardness of Bitumen by measuring the depth ( in tenths of a mm) to which a standard and loaded needle will vertically penetrate in 5 seconds, a sample of Bitumen maintained at a temperature of 25°C. Hence the softer the bitumen, the greater will be its number of penetration units. We offer the following grades of Penetration Bitumen includingBitumen 80/100, Bitumen 85/100, Bitumen 35/50, Bitumen 40/50, Bitumen 50/70, Bitumen 60/70 and Bitumen 160/220. Equivalent to BS EN12591 and BS EN 13924.
Bitumen is a product of Crude Oil Distillation. It is a semi-solid hydrocarbon product produced by removing the lighter fractions such as (liquid petroleum gas, petrol and diesel) from heavy crude oil during the refining process. As such, it is correctly known as refined bitumen.
