Bitumen Sprayers
Buy Bitumen Sprayers
Bitumen Sprayers are a practical buy for road construction and maintenance contractors applying bitumen emulsion for tack coats, prime coats, and surface dressing operations. Consistent spray coverage is critical to achieving proper bond between pavement layers — making equipment reliability and application control key factors in choosing the right machine. Wenbro stocks Bitumen Sprayers suited to both smaller maintenance operations and larger road rehabilitation projects, all maintained in-house for reliable field performance. For complementary road and surface work, our Ride-On Rollers and Plate Compactors support the full road construction workflow.
Frequently Asked Questions
What applications are Bitumen Sprayers used for?
Bitumen Sprayers are used to apply bitumen emulsion as a tack coat between pavement layers, a prime coat on prepared sub-base, or as part of surface dressing (chip and spray) operations. Consistent, controlled spray application is essential for proper layer adhesion and long-term road performance.
What tank capacities are available on Bitumen Sprayers?
Bitumen Sprayer tank capacities vary widely depending on the scale of the application — from smaller trailer-mounted units for maintenance patching through to larger self-propelled or truck-mounted systems for major road works. Contact Wenbro on 087 073 7777 to discuss the right capacity for your project volumes.
How is bitumen heated and maintained at the correct temperature in a sprayer?
Most Bitumen Sprayers include a heating system — typically diesel-fired — to maintain the bitumen at the correct application temperature. Temperature control is critical as bitumen viscosity changes significantly with temperature, directly affecting spray pattern, coverage rate, and penetration.
Can Bitumen Sprayers be used for emulsion and cutback bitumen?
Many Bitumen Sprayers are compatible with both bitumen emulsions and cutback bitumen, though the specific pump and seal materials should be confirmed for the product being applied. Always clean the system thoroughly between different bitumen types to avoid contamination and equipment damage.
Does Wenbro service Bitumen Sprayers after purchase?
Yes — Wenbro’s in-house team handles servicing on all Bitumen Sprayers sold through us, including pump, nozzle, heating system, and tank maintenance. Call 087 073 7777 to arrange ongoing support or discuss spare parts availability.
