Asphalt tape used for pavement cracks is called a seam tape or a crimping tape. It is a kind of pavement crack treatment material, which has strong viscosity, convenient construction, high efficiency and effective maintenance of the road surface.

Advantages of asphalt pavement tape (seaming tape):

(1) Convenient construction and high efficiency: no equipment is needed, and the construction efficiency is more than twice that of the joints;

(2) High cost performance: the construction cost is about 80% of the same performance of the joint construction;

(3) Strong bonding ability: it can be tightly bonded to the road surface above 15 ℃;

(4) Reliable technology: no water leakage, no flow at high temperature, no sticky wheels, no brittle crack at low temperature, good durability, and no damage to the pavement structure

(5) Strong applicability: can be used for crack treatment of cement pavement and asphalt pavement, and can also be used for crack treatment in front of old pavement covers;

(6) Energy saving and environmental protection: No fuel consumption and no exhaust emissions.

The construction process of the seam tape is as follows:

1. Clean the road

2. Torn paper

3. Press the seam tape on the crack surface

4. Compact after finishing

If cracks larger than 1cm need to be filled

Ensure that the seam tape is well connected to the road and can be opened to traffic.
