Our proven method of packaging traditional roofing asphalt in an easy to handle 50 lb brick has changed the way many top contractors view and estimate their BUR projects. Check out some of the benefits you can expect when you switch to Quik-Melt Cleaner kettles Quik-Melt contractors notice a reduction in kettle maintenance. Since the brick never touches the ground there is little or no ground contamination introduced into the kettle. The result is a cleaner, safer kettle with less down time. Safer work environment No disassembly required. With Quik-Melt the need to chop asphalt is a thing of the past. The lightweight brick goes directly into the kettle and at 350º F the wrapper completely melts away.
