SS-1 Tack Coat

Ensure a strong, long-lasting bond between existing pavement and new asphalt with SS-1 Asphalt Emulsion Tack Coat. This premium slow-setting asphalt emulsion is formulated to create superior adhesion between asphalt layers, helping prevent slippage, delamination, and premature pavement failure.

Packaged in a convenient 5-gallon (18.9 L) pail, SS-1 is ideal for smaller paving jobs, utility cuts, patching, driveways, parking lots, and any project where a full drum isn’t required. Ready to use with no heating required, it can be applied by brush, roller, squeegee, or sprayer for fast, efficient application.

As the water evaporates, the emulsion cures to leave behind a durable asphalt film that securely bonds new asphalt to existing pavement, improving the longevity and performance of your repair or paving project.
