HeißasphaltFlicken

HeißasphaltFlicken, which translates to "hot asphalt patch" in English, refers to a common method used for repairing potholes and other surface damage in asphalt roads. This technique involves using hot mix asphalt, a material composed of asphalt binder and aggregates, heated to a high temperature to ensure proper bonding and durability.

The repair process typically begins with cleaning the damaged area to remove debris, loose material, and water. The pothole or crack is then filled with the hot asphalt mixture. This material is usually delivered to the site in a heated truck or paver. Once the hot asphalt is placed in the cavity, it is compacted using tools such as a tamper, roller, or vibratory plate compactor. The compaction process is crucial for creating a dense and stable patch that can withstand traffic loads.

HeißasphaltFlicken is a widely used and effective method for temporary and sometimes permanent repairs of asphalt surfaces. Its advantages include quick curing times, good adhesion to existing pavement, and a relatively smooth finish compared to some cold patch alternatives. However, the effectiveness and longevity of the repair can depend on factors such as the quality of the materials used, the thoroughness of the preparation, and the ambient temperature during application. This method is particularly suitable for larger or deeper damage that requires a robust and durable repair.
