2 Ton Asphalt Reclaimer & Infrared Hot Box
The 2 Ton Asphalt Hot Box Reclaimer is a compact hot box reclaimer that gives you plant-level flexibility out on the road. It transports hot mix from the plant, reheats leftover chunks, and keeps material at working temperature so your crew is not racing the clock on every load. Propane powered infrared heat and digital controls keep the mix consistent while you focus on production.
Overview & Use Cases
Use this unit whenever you need a reliable hot mix for small to mid-sized patching routes. It carries two tons of material, reheats reclaimed asphalt into a usable patch, and holds mix at about 300°F for up to 48 hours when set correctly. That means fewer last-minute plant runs and less money tied up in cold patch that will not last.
Typical use cases include:
- Transporting fresh hot mix from the plant to the jobsite
- Reclaiming chunks of leftover asphalt into usable patch material
- Keeping mix hot across multi-day or overnight jobs
You do not need a separate heater or blower. Everything needed for reclaiming and holding temperature is built into this hot box trailer.
Key Features & Benefits
- Dual infrared heaters with 70,000 BTUs of consistent radiant heat
- Programmable Logic Controller that holds around 300°F for up to 48 hours
- Automatic spark ignition with auto shut off for safe operation
- Insulated dual hopper designed to keep asphalt hot and workable
- Venturi system with no blowers or batteries to maintain
- Chute-style loading doors that make plant loading faster and cleaner
- Auto lock unloading doors that stay in the up position while you shovel
- Heavy-duty trailer frame built with 6" x 2" tubular steel and torsion axles
With this asphalt reclaimer on your trailer, you turn more of each load into finished work instead of wasted tonnage.
How to Use the 2 Ton Reclaimer
What you will need:
- One 100 lb vapor propane tank
