ASPHALT ROAD PROJECTS
SHARPSHOT® products are quickly becoming the industry standard for the full range of asphalt pavement projects. SHARPSHOT® GSF fillers and aggregates are ideal for sealcoating, slurry seals, chip sealing, Type I, Type II and Type III SHARPSHOT®aggregates.
Our fillers and aggregates are black throughout each particle thus substantially reducing the quantity of carbon black needed in the admixture.
SHARPSHOT® will help maintain a rich, black color for years even as the surface is subjected to high traffic wear and tear. With SHARPSHOT® you’ll see tomorrow what you see today.
The low absorption rate of SHARPSHOT® means less liquid required to achieve proper sealer viscosity and shorter cure times after application. This also means less downtime at the job site and quicker access to the pavement for the end user.
The angular shape and toughness of the SHARPSHOT® particles ensure a good anchor-lock pattern that can resist high static and dynamic loads resulting in a sealcoat that is more durable and provides excellent wet-track abrasion.
NON-SKID
Non-Skid SHARPSHOT® 30x60 makes a more durable non-skid product due to its hardness.
It resists oxidation thus maintaining surface integrity.
It features 100% fractured faces in its particles, is black in color and is UV-resistant.
LINE REMOVAL
Line Removal SHARPSHOT® 20x50 is one of the fastest cutting expendable abrasives on the market, is environmentally-friendly, and contains less than 0.1% crystalline silica.
SHARPSHOT® 20x50 is the ideal product for removing old and broken lines on asphalt pavement.
