Asphalt Sawing - Asphalt Cutting

  • Asphalt deterioration typically begins in smaller areas damaged by water or other outside factors, and can quickly spread throughout your pavement. Watching for and repairing these areas early can save you a much more costly repair or entire pavement replacement later.
  • Cutting asphalt requires a unique blade that is different than one you would use to cut other surfaces such as concrete, marble, or granite. Because asphalt is softer, it requires a diamond blade with a hard bond. Other soft-bonded blades are not effective on asphalt pavement cutting.
  • With a diamond asphalt cutting blade, the exposed edge is worn away as it cuts through the asphalt. Wear on the blade exposes a new layer of grit, resulting in unabated cutting. Hard blades release grit easily while cutting asphalt. Asphalt cutting blades come in both wet and dry varieties. A dry blade has a softer bond than a wet asphalt cutting blade. Wet blades require water to cool and lubricate a cut while pavement cutting.
  • Cutting asphalt is always necessary for asphalt replacement and frequently required for asphalt repairs that involve cutting away deteriorating pieces of asphalt to fill potholes. When cutting asphalt to complete a repair job, you’ll need to have the appropriate pavement cutting tool, as well as the materials and equipment to fill cracks and asphalt equipment for repairing potholes.
