ROADSAVER 231

PART NO. 34231

AUGUST 2008

READ BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT

GENERAL Crafco RoadSaver 231 is a hot-applied, asphalt based product used to seal cracks and joints in asphalt or portland cement concrete pavements in cold to very cold climates. RoadSaver 231 is supplied in solid form which when melted and properly applied forms a resilient, adhesive and flexible compound with high elongation capability at low temperatures, and resistance to flow during the summer.

RoadSaver 231 is used in highway, street, and airfield pavements and is applied to pavement cracks and joints using either pressure feed melter applicators or pour pots. At application temperature it is free flowing and self-leveling. Due to its softness, RoadSaver 231 is not recommended for use as a crack sealant in parking lots or other areas with high levels of foot traffic. RoadSaver 231 has been a quality Crafco product for 25 years. RoadSaver 231 has proven to be an exceptional performing sealant in cold climates and has achieved the Crafco CERTIFIED PERFORMANCE designation. VOC = 0 g/l.
