TEMPERATURE REQUIREMENT:

All crack filling and sealing work done under this contract shall be performed when ambient temperatures are 40° F

or higher.

EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS:

When the filler or sealants are required to be supplied in hot oil-heated, containerized, mobile tanks, the equipment

shall consist of a double boiler type Melter.

The filler or sealant shall be heated in a Melter constructed either as a double boiler with the space between the inner

and outer shells filled with a heat-transfer medium, or with internal tubes or coils carrying the filler or sealant

through a heated oil bath and into a heated double wall hopper. Direct heating shall not be used. The Melter shall be

capable of maintaining the specific pouring temperature within +40° F. The Melter shall be equipped with positive

temperature controls, and with mechanical agitation or a re-circulation pump capable of assuring a homogeneous

blend of the filler or sealant. The Melter shall have separate thermometers to indicate the temperature of the heat-

transfer medium, and the filler or sealant material in the hopper. Before any crack filling or sealing shall commence,

the Engineer or agency representative shall inspect the Melter to ascertain the presence and working conditions of

the thermometers. Under no circumstances will the Engineer or agency representative permit any crack filling or

sealing if the thermometers are found to be defective or missing.

The application equipment shall be capable of heating 75% of the capacity of the tank in one hour when ambient

temperatures are 70° F.

The contractor shall be responsible for a safe and efficient method by which the engineer or agency representative

will be able to accurately measure the temperature of the filler or sealant as it is discharged to the applicator wand.

The proposed method must be submitted to the engineer or agency representative for their approval prior to the start

of crack filling or sealing operations. The contractor shall provide the engineer or agency representative with two

(18-inch stem) thermometers having a temperature range sufficient to meet this requirement.

The discharge hose shall be equipped with a thermostatically controlled heating apparatus or shall be insulated

sufficiently to maintain the proper sealant or filler temperature. The application wand shall be returned to the

machine if it is not thermostatically heat controlled, and material recirculated as necessary to maintain the proper

sealant or filler pouring temperature between individual crack sealing or filling operations.

When compressed air equipment (125 cubic feet per minute minimum) is required to be supplied, suitable traps or

devices shall be installed on this equipment to prevent moisture and oil from contaminating the crack surfaces. The

contractor shall maintain these devices and see that they are functioning properly.

STRIKE-OFF FLUSH APPLICATION METHOD - ASTM D6690 Type II only

Heat, haul, deliver (in hot oil-heated, containerized, mobile tanks), clean cracks (using air compressor with

minimum 125 cubic feet per minute), and seal cracks at the locations. Contractor to supply and operate all

equipment, including that required to clean and seal cracks. The municipality shall determine if traffic control is

required by the Contractor. Overall Supervision shall be provided by the Contractor.

Only well-defined single cracks shall be sealed. Sealing shall be limited to cracks from 1/8 inch to 1 inch wide, at

locations as directed by the Engineer or agency representative. Cracks with varying widths, portions of which are

1/8 inch wide or greater, shall be sealed along their entire length.

Where secondary cracking exists, seal only the primary (widest) crack. Do not seal secondary cracks, or excessive

material width and thickness will result.

All cracks shall be thoroughly cleaned of dust, dirt, foreign material, sand and any other extraneous materials by

high pressure air or a hot air lance. When using a hot air lance, care shall be taken so as not to burn, scorch or ignite

the adjoining pavement. The material and debris shall be blown from the crack and pavement to prevent

recontamination of the crack. The crack sides shall appear thoroughly clean and dry immediately prior to sealing.

The Contractor shall be ordered to re-clean cracks if, in the opinion of the agency representative, adequate cleaning

and drying is not evident. Any cracks not sealed the same day shall be re-cleaned prior to sealing.

Cracks shall be sealed by placing the applicator wand in or directly over the crack recess and carefully discharging

the sealant just to fill the crack. The material shall be struck-off flush with the pavement surface using a sealing shoe

and/or “V”- shaped squeegee pressed firmly against the roadway surface. Only a narrow, thin “film” of material

shall be permitted on the pavement surface, no greater than 4 inches wide and 1/32 inch thick. Sealant in excess of

the specified narrow, thin “film” amount shall be removed from the pavement surface and disposed of properly, at

the Contractor’s expense.

Traffic shall not be allowed on the sealant until it has cooled sufficiently and will not track. A low pressure, light

spray of water may be used to accelerate cooling of the filler or sealant. Blotting with fine aggregate will not be

allowed.

Sealant that becomes damaged from traffic or from the removal of over-applied amounts shall be repaired. The areas

shall be cleaned with high pressure air and then have additional sealant applied to the satisfaction of the Engineer or

agency representative, at the Contractor’s expense.

Deficient areas where sealant has sunk into the crack more than 3/8 inch below the pavement surface shall be

cleaned with high pressure air and additional sealant installed, to the satisfaction of the Engineer or agency

representative and at the bid price. Cleaning of damaged or deficient areas shall not require removal of the sealant

from a crack that has been sealed.

PAYMENT:

Payments shall be made at contract price per gallon for the actual quantities of crack filler/sealer furnished to and

verified by the receiving agency. This determination as to quantities involved in any contract shall be accepted as

final and binding. A delivery slip stating quantities shall accompany each shipment. Measurement shall be based

on the volume of crack filler/sealer at a temperature of 15 degrees C. The method to be used for volume corrections

shall be the method and coefficients of expansion given in the “Standard Petroleum Tables, A.S.T.M. D1250”.

DELIVERY TICKET:

A delivery ticket shall be provided with each load of crack filler/sealer stating the following:

1. Storage facility identification

2. Ticket Number

3. Date/time

4. Item Number and Type

5. Quantity

PRICE ADJUSTMENTS:

1. Price adjustments allowed will be based on the November 2025, average of the F.O.B. terminal price per metric

ton of unmodified PG 64-22 binder without anti-stripping agent (based average F.O.B. terminal price). The new

monthly average terminal price will be determined by the New York State Department of Transportation based on

prices of preapproved primary sources of performance graded binder in accordance with the New York State

Department of Transportation Standard Specification. The November 2025, average is $638.00/Ton English.

NOTE: the same grade of asphalt cement used in establishing the base average F.O.B. terminal price shall be used

in establishing the new average F.O.B. terminal price.

2. The new average F.O.B. terminal price will be determined based on the above F.O.B., terminal prices posted on

or about the 25th of each month, hereafter known as the “Adjustment Date”. However, price adjustments, in

accordance with the formula below, will be effective for deliveries made on and after the first of the month (i.e.,

March 1, 2026) following the adjustment date.

3. The unit prices of bituminous materials purchased from any award based on this

specification will be subject to adjustment based on the following formula:

Price Adj.

(Per gal.)

= New Average F.O.B. - Base Average

Terminal price

Terminal Price X Total Allowable Petroleum %

235

NEW MONTHLY AVERAGE F.O.B. TERMINAL PRICE:

The average F.O.B. terminal price for unmodified PG 64-22 binder, without anti-stripping agent, as determined by

the New York State Department of Transportation per New York State Department of Transportation Standard

Specification.
