Cutback Bitumen MC

28Edge supplies premium-quality Cutback Bitumen (MC) used in road construction, surface dressing, and prime coating applications. Our cutback bitumen is manufactured from carefully selected penetration-grade base bitumen blended with controlled quantities of petroleum distillates to achieve the desired viscosity and curing rate. Available in Medium Curing (MC-30, MC-70, MC-250, MC-800, and MC-3000) grades, 28Edge delivers the product in bulk tankers or drums under FOB, CIF, and CFR trade terms to clients across the Middle East, Africa, and Asia.

Cutback bitumen is a liquid form of bitumen designed for use at ambient temperatures, providing easy workability and strong adhesion without the need for preheating. The volatility of the solvent controls the curing rate — allowing the bitumen to penetrate the base layer and form a durable bond once the solvent evaporates. Medium Curing (MC) cutbacks are particularly suited for prime coats, surface dressing, and patch repair works, offering excellent wetting and binding properties on aggregates and granular surfaces.

28Edge’s cutback bitumen conforms to ASTM D2026, D2027, and IS 217 standards, with tight control over viscosity, flash point, distillation characteristics, and residue by evaporation. Each batch is independently inspected and certified by SGS or Bureau Veritas, ensuring reliable performance, safety, and consistency. The product is available in corrosion-resistant steel drums or in bulk, stored under temperature-controlled conditions to maintain stability during handling and transport.

As a time-tested road construction material, cutback bitumen remains widely used for low-temperature and quick-setting applications where heating is impractical. 28Edge continues to supply high-performance cutback bitumen that meets international standards and supports efficient, durable, and cost-effective pavement solutions for infrastructure projects worldwide.
