Tack Coat

Proper application of Tack Coat material is crucial to long-lasting asphalt pavements. Improper tack shots can typically be traced to:

1. Incorrect nozzle size for application and speed
2. Plugged pump strainer
3. Cold material
4. Separated material
5. Incorrect bar height
6. Incorrect nozzle angle
