What Is Bitumen 60/70?

Bitumen 60/70 is a penetration grade asphalt commonly used in road construction, offering a balance of hardness and flexibility, particularly suitable for Malaysia’s hot and humid climate. It resists rutting and deformation under high temperatures, making it popular for highways, urban roads, and heavy traffic zones. Its standard specification (ASTM D5 for penetration at 25 °C: 60–70 × 0.1 mm needle penetration) makes it a go-to grade for paving, airport surfaces, bridge decks, and seal coats.
