HaTelit®
The flexible, high-strength and temperature resistant grid for effective reinforcement of asphalt layers.
Basic info
HaTelit® is made from high-modulus polyester and coated with bitumen to achieve a good bond to the asphalt. One side has an ultra-lightweight nonwoven attached, also coated with bitumen. This nonwoven simplifies installation and ensures continuous bond between the layers.
This strong bond allows HaTelit® to take up tensile forces and distribute them evenly over a large area. Therefore HaTelit® provides an effective method of preventing reflective cracking in asphalt layers. Over 35 years of experience with HaTelit® have shown that maintenance intervals can be increased by a factor of 3-4. This advantage applies in cold, temperate and hot climate zones.
A road reinforced with suitably designed and properly installed HaTelit® reinforcement will remain crack-free for many years.
As with all geosynthetics produced by HUESKER Synthetic, HaTelit® is subject to strict quality controls to ensure the same high quality standards are maintained. The continuous chain of quality checks begins with the raw material and ends with the finished product.
HUESKER Synthetic GmbH is ISO 9001:2000 accredited.
Typical applications:
- Anti-cracking reinforcement in asphalt
