What Other Customers Say:
“We’re working on a project at the Super Walmart in Charleston South Carolina, and I just wanted to take a minute and let you know how impressed I am with this little infrared machine. We are currently using it as part of a larger project we have underway here. There was some patching and Walmart Management had some concerns about possible trip hazards up near the building. Were using our little infrared machine to take down those trip hazards rework that asphalt and make it seamless where it joins the existing asphalt right up by the building to eliminate the trip hazards. This is a great little machine and I look forward to getting a bigger machine for bigger projects. I’ll send you some photos. All the best!“

How does it work?
The RY2X2 Infrared Asphalt Heater is easy to use: simply place it over the distressed asphalt point, light the self-contained burner, and in as little as five to 10 minutes, this heater will have the asphalt brought back to its original mixing temperature. Remove the machine, rake the asphalt into place, compact the asphalt with a vibrating plate or plate compactor, and you're all done!
In the past, you'd have to drive to the asphalt plant, buy new asphalt, dig up the old asphalt, replace it, and then figure out where to dispose of the old asphalt . . . all of those steps are eliminated now! Just wheel it into place, light it, and you're halfway done! The unit weighs just 90lbs and features heat-shielded caster wheels, so you can operate it with just one person - no crew needed to move it.
This unit is built to last: the frame is 11 gauge steel, and the stainless steel and ceramic heater cartridge has an average lifespan of 1,500 hours.
The RY2X2 uses actual infrared heating (not blue flame heating) through a ceramic mesh cartridge. This provides the best heat distribution of any heater in its class.
Like all RynoWorx products, this unit puts safety first. No open torch flame that can blow out or leak propane on the job. And the regulator with a built-in pressure gauge means you always know how much fuel is flowing so you can turn the heater temperature up or down.
How can you make money with this? You can do asphalt repairs all year-round, but especially for emergency winter pothole repair.
The IR ry2x2 units performed terrific! They should be flying out of your warehouse! Thanks again!

I purchased this machine to add services to my sealcoating business on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. Overall the price point is great. The machine works well heats up quickly and does its job. Where I am not impressed is the quality of the machine upon taking it out of the box reading the manual putting together the few bolt-ons. I noticed the front legs were bent and the machine rocks. This is a liability for not only my crew but my business.

Asphalt Kingdom rocks it man. my name is Dave. owner and operator of trim Reaper lawn and garden. I recently purchased some high-quality equipment from Asphalt Kingdom.
I easily learned how to operate the equipment by watching their quality instructional videos.

This machine works great. It ran for 7 straight hours on 2/3 full propane tank. Heats very well, about 8 minutes at 38 psi worked for me. Very compact size. I can easily fit it in my trailer. Also, it seemed to cool down very quickly. The outer metal stayed hot for a while, but the blanket underneath cools off much quicker. 10 minutes after I was done I put it in my wood floor trailer with no problems.
A few minor issues:
I feel that the wheels could be a bit larger. Also the handle doesnRead more't lock into place completely; has about 2 inches of movement when locked in upright position. Not a huge issue, just would make moving it around a little easier. Also the hardware(4 nuts and bolts for propane mount) needs to be packaged better. Most of the hardware was missing because the shipping company damaged the box and they fell out because they were loose in the box. I had hardware to replace it so it was no problem.
Overall, great machine. I will be buying another one.

I pre-ordered one of these for my business and after it arrives it sat for a few days before I took it out for its first use. It comes about 95% assembled and its very well packaged.
It's really sturdy too. Operation is easy too. You simply open the gas, set the regulator to 12psi and stick a torch under it for a few seconds to ignite it. A=Once lit, crank the pressure to 30psi and let it cook the spot you want to patch for about 10 min. Scarify the surface, add HMA if needed, smootRead moreh and compact. That's pretty much it.
This really is a great patching tool and it works just like the sales demonstration video says and shows. This thing will earn its keep with us very fast. Everyone on my crew that has used it so far loves it. We're now shopping larger IR units. If you're in the business and you're on the fence about this, do yourself a favor and get one. You'll be glad you did. I know I'm glad I did.

Customer Questions
How long can a full propane tank last if I will use my RY2X2 the whole day?
A 20 lb. propane cylinder should last on average between 7 and 11 hours depending on the operating pressure and ambient conditions.
Does the RY2X2 use actual infrared or blue flame?
The RY2X2 infrared heater uses actual infrared through a ceramic mesh cartridge. It provides the best heat distribution of any heater in its class.
When using the IHR RY2X2 during cold weather (winter season), the pressure drops and not heating up to a working temperature, or the pressure not passing 20 psi.
The unit runs on pressure from the propane tank and when it's cold outside the liquid in the tank gets to a point where it doesn’t boil producing more vapor and pressure so even if you turn up the regulator the tank is only out pouting so much pressure PSI. When running during cold weather they will have to bring more full propane tanks to get thru the jobs.
“A propane tank will freeze if there isn’t enough heat to convert the liquid propane into gas in a process called vaporization. The heat typically comes from the ambient air, but if it’s too cold outside or the liquid-to-surface ratio in the tank is too low, the tank can freeze.”
HOW much BTU heat in this product?
The RY2x2 Heater has a 75,000 BTU/hr Infrared burner.
Can you use it to heat an area that has previous crack filler (rubber) in it? Can you use it to heat an area that has previous cold patch filling the hole/crack?
Yes. You can use the RY2X2 Infrared Asphalt Heater to any previously filled cracks - whether with the hot pour rubberized crack filler or with the cold patch.
Q Interested in your infrared pothole machine. How does it work if I have an area bigger than 2 feet? Do you simply work in 2foot sections? Is there a recommended overlap? How high does old asphalt need to be to obtain a flush surface after tamping?
A Yes, if you have areas that are larger than 4 sq ft you would have to do multiple presses. Each press takes about 7 minutes and you can overlap 4 inches on each press. You generally add new asphalt or milling and hold it a half-inch higher than the...
Where should I ignite the RY2X2?
The torch should be lighting the ceramic mesh cartridge instead of the top part. Place the tip of the torch underneath the skirt to light the heater.
