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.


Properties of Bitumen 160/220

  • Penetration Value: 160–220 (1/10 mm) – ensures harder consistency for strength and durability.

  • Viscosity: High, enabling better coating of aggregates during asphalt production.

  • Thermal Stability: Performs well in both high and low temperatures without excessive softening or brittleness.

  • Stiffness & Strength: Resists permanent deformation under heavy loads.

  • Waterproofing: Prevents water penetration into pavement layers.

  • Durability: Maintains performance under extreme weather and traffic conditions.

  • Adhesion: Bonds effectively with aggregates for long-lasting pavement strength.
