PORTABLE GAS ASPHALT RADIANT HEATERS
Gas heater AGRH for asphalt repair
Is a completely new, efficient and cheap solution not only for specialized road repair companies – also (thanks to its small size and ease of use) for individual customers who wish to reconstruct even small surface defects.
The gas radiant heater is intended for minor repairs of roads, bays, driveways and squares.
The AGRH heater consists of a chassis that allows for free movement of the machine and a gas burner that emits infrared light.
Thermal energy
It is obtained by burning gas on the surface of a special material and is transmitted in the form of an electromagnetic wave that heats a specific surface of the asphalt.
Infrared asphalt heating is used to directly plasticize the asphalt surface, bringing with it many advantages over time-consuming and unstable traditional solutions.
When using the AGRH gas radiant heaters for repairs, no cuts are created that accumulate stress in the binding layer of the road – which in turn causes cracking and further degradation of the pavement. This is a significant advantage – especially in the case of viaducts and bridges.
The lack of direct contact of the flame with the asphalt allows the heat to penetrate into the asphalt without burning its surface. The asphalt heated by this method can be recycled.
A special valve with a thermostat controls the temperature to which the asphalt is heated. Depending on the composition of the asphalt mix, the temperature and heating time are adjusted by the user.
The heater is a self-sufficient device, adapted to be supplied with propane-butane or propane gas from a 11 kg cylinder. It does not require additional power sources.
AGRH-6 gas heater for asphalt repair - compact version
The AGRH -6 asphalt repair radiator is a small mobile device. The device can easily fit into a small van, pick-up or even a combi. The radiator, like its larger predecessor, has wheels that make it mobile. The asphalt repair gas heater is designed to be operated by one person. AGRH-6 will be perfect for minor road repairs on asphalt surfaces. The radiator is also designed to remove vinyl asbestos plates.

Speed and efficiency
Thanks to our gas radiant heaters, you can fill in cavities in the pavement at sewage wells, tracks, drainage or expansion joints on viaducts and bridges.
It can also be used to dry the surface before carrying out work requiring dry asphalt.
It can also be used for the installation of thermoplastic road markings.
