If you are a starting asphalt maintenance contractor or want to get started repairing your own asphalt (and maybe do some odd jobs repairing your neighbors’ asphalt), you can invest in this PRO crack repair package.
Included in this package is the RY10 PRO melter, a 2-in-1 crack fill melter and applicator with easy-to-use controls, as well as safety features, improved melting capabilities, a stabilized and protected temperature gauge, and increased efficiency so you can save on propane. With the included half pallet of crackfill, you can fill in 7,200 linear feet of cracks.
At $1.00 per linear ft of crack filling, this is about $7,200.00 Market Rate. Prices vary in different parts of the country. Ordering more quantities of supplies decreases costs and saves you money.
This is a good amount of our pro-grade rubberized crack filler for any start-up asphalt entrepreneur, property manager, or maintenance person looking to get into asphalt crack repair. The half pallet has 36 boxes of 30-lb crackfill, which has a shelf life of 5 years. The crackfill stays solid until you melt it in a crackfill melter or kettle. To do this, start up your RY10 with the electric start igniter. Heat the kettle to 350°F and place the cube of crackfill (with the plastic wrapping still on) into your RY10 Pro kettle. In about 10 minutes (which you can spend cleaning out and preparing your cracks for repair), your crackfill should be melted and can be applied onto the asphalt cracks.
Features
The Torch & Adaptor Accessory For Burning Crack Vegetation is an optional accessory that lets you clean cracks on the fly, gives the valve some extra heat at startup, and helps you keep your equipment clean.
It's good to clean it out completely after 5 uses; otherwise there is a possibility of charring rubber in areas where there may be multiple layers of rubber built up.
To clean it, heat it up and scrape it out with a scraper on a broom handle. Then start fresh with a brand new box of crackfill. Â
You can fill cracks as long as the pavement is 40°F or warmer. If it is colder but you need to fill cracks, use a heat lance to heat the pavement up before you apply it.
The best temperature for heating your material to is 380 - 400°F (193 - 204°C) ; any higher than 400°F may severely damage product. Prolonged heating can also damage the product - heat it only when you are ready to apply it.
Our crack filler has a shelf life of 10 years unopened. It's why so many of our customers choose to take advantage our half-pallet and pallet offerings: the savings are so high it is worth storing them until you need them. It can be stored outside; just cover it with weather-resistant pallet wrap and keep it out of the sun.
Absolutely! You just have to heat it up again when you are ready to use it.
As soon as the crackfiller comes down to ambient temperature - sometimes as soon as 30-45 minutes when it is hot, and more quickly in cooler temperatures. Test with a stick: if you push down on the crackfiller and the crackfill doesn't tack to the stick, you're good to drive on it.
Whether you used liquid cold-pour crack filler or rubberized hot-pour crack filler, it is best to let the product dry completely before applying sealer. Depending on ambient and surface temperatures, the actual drying time of the crack fill can vary. We usually recommend allowing crack fill to dry for 24 to 48 hours before applying sealer.
