Crack-Stix Permanent Asphalt / Concrete Crack Filler is the only PERMANENT solution to cracks on the marketplace. It is the same product seen on highways and roads but the only difference is YOU CAN APPLY IT and don't need a 200 gallon melter to do it!
Crack-StixTM are furnished as a solid "rope" in ½" thickness. It is an elastomeric, self-leveling sealant, which liquefies quickly and can be used in both asphalt and concrete pavements. When properly applied, it combines tenacious adhesive power with extraordinary resiliency to protect against the infiltration of moisture or incompressibles through repeated thermal cycles of expansion and contraction.
Crack-StixTM exhibit superior low temperature ductility, weather resistance, low oxidation breakdown and is non-tracking. It is the only sealant available which is designed to be inserted into the crack or joint cavity first and then melted with direct heat process. The modifier system contained in Crack-StixTM allows the material to withstand direct heat without experiencing degradation.
(Note: Pli-Stix and Crack-Stix are the same product. Pli-Stix comes in 30ft rolls, while Crack-Stix comes in longer rolls: 75 ft or 150 ft.)

Application:
3 Easy Steps...
Clean it... Take a screwdriver & scratch out all debris from inside the crack, then sweep it clean with a whisk broom. Crack must be dry.
Pack it... uncoil & cut the appropriate size stix & shape/pack into crack with fingertip pressure. Using the screwdriver, press the stix into the crack approximately 1/16" to 1/8" below actual pavement surface level. To achieve a neat overall appearance, do not overfill crack. The material seals In It...Not On It. (*Note: If the crack is not as wide as the ½" Crack-StixTM, we recommend stretching the Crack-Stix out...you can leave it in the sun for a while to make it easier to stretch. You can also splice it with a razor blade).
Melt it... take propane torch & light it. Adjust bright blue part of flame to 1" long. Holding the flame 1-1/2" from the stix, move the flame from side to side in a slow & even motion, heating no more than one foot at a time (melt stick until liquid). Seal cures in 20 minutes & is ready for traffic. For best results use CSX TorchTM 900.
WARNING: Pre-warm asphalt/concrete joint prior to stix application. Cavity must be totally dry to ensure a positive seal. Use extreme caution when heating concrete. ENTRAPPED MOISTURE OR FROST MAY CAUSE CONCRETE TO "POP" OR "SPALL".
Do not apply in wet cracks or where frost, snow or ice is present. Do not apply if the ground temperature is below 40 degrees.
