What is Bitumen 160/220?
Bitumen 160/220 is a penetration-grade bitumen known for its specific hardness and consistency. The numbers 160 and 220 indicate the depth (in tenths of a millimeter) that a standard needle penetrates the bitumen under controlled temperature (25°C / 77°F).
This grade offers an excellent balance of stiffness and flexibility, making it ideal for regions with varying climate conditions and heavy traffic loads.
