Tackling Asphalt Tack

Protecting your equipment and profits

The Silent Killer Crippling Asphalt Operations:
Are you ready for the cure?

The asphalt industry, the backbone of our infrastructure, faces a relentless and often underestimated adversary: Asphalt Tack

- silent killer of efficiency

- drain on profits

- constant source of frustration for plant owners and operators

While you focus on mix designs and project deadlines, asphalt tack is insidiously clinging to your equipment, grinding down your bottom line one sticky layer at a time.

Every day, tons of viscous asphalt course through your plant, over your conveyors, into your trucks, and on your paving equipment. And with every pass, a little bit stays behind.

It's the unseen tax on your operation, manifesting in a cascade of costly problems that you can no longer afford to ignore.

Are you aware of the true cost of this sticky reality?

Let's peel back the layers of this asphalt adhesion nightmare:

Slat Conveyor Catastrophes

Uneven Material Flow
Increased drag
Motor and bearing strain
Frequent cleaning
Costly repairs
Production disruptions

Imagine your material flow grinding to a halt, choked by stubborn buildup. Uneven material feed leads to inconsistent mixes and wasted material.

The increased drag puts undue strain on motors and bearings, leading to premature failures and costly emergency repairs.

Plus the endless cycle of scraping and cleaning disrupts production schedules, turning potentially profitable hours into periods of frustrating downtime.

Truck Bed Binding

Slowed unloading times
Reduced loads per shift
Increased labor costs
Difficult cleaning
Truck bed lining damage

Picture your trucks struggling to unload, valuable time wasted as drivers wrestle with sticky beds. Reduced loads per shift directly impact your delivery capacity and profitability.

The increased labor required for manual cleaning, often with harsh and potentially damaging methods, adds another layer of expense.

And the wear and tear on truck bed linings from constant scraping is a hidden cost that eats away at your margins.

Double Drum Roller Distress

Reduced compaction effectiveness
Uneven surfaces
Roller surface damage
Costly resurfacing or replacement

The very machines designed to create smooth, compacted surfaces are themselves becoming victims.

Asphalt caking onto the drums reduces compaction effectiveness, leading to uneven surfaces and the risk of rework.

The constant battle to keep rollers clean can damage their surfaces, causing expensive resurfacing or even complete replacement.

It isn't just about aesthetics; it's about the quality of your work and the longevity of your investment.

Increased Maintenance and Downtime

Lost production
Higher labor costs
Impact on bottom line

The cumulative effect of these individual issues is a dramatic increase in maintenance frequency and prolonged periods of unproductive downtime.

Lost production translates directly to lost revenue, and the higher labor costs associated with constant cleaning and repairs further erode your profitability.

This isn't just inconvenient; it's a significant drain on your resources.

Reduced Equipment Lifespan

Accelerated wear and tear
Frequent maintenance and parts
Premature costly replacement
Lost production awaiting replacement
Impacts bottom line

The constant struggle against asphalt tack accelerates wear and tear on all your critical equipment.

Motors work harder, bearings fail sooner, and surfaces degrade faster.

Premature aging forces you into costly replacements far sooner than necessary, a silent killer of your long-term capital investments.

Fundamentally change this sticky reality

Proactively shield your assets and reclaim lost profits
