Asphalt / Tarmac

Asphalt is an engineered product used for the construction of road surfaces formed from a mix of crude oil, sand and aggregate. Dependent on how old and how hard the asphalt was rolled (reducing air pockets within) will determine the compressive strength and subsequently will determine its abrasive characteristics. In addition to asphalt this category of diamond blade is used for extreme abrasive applications such as green concrete, light weight blocks and cement screed.
