Only 2 more weeks until the 2022 National Pavement Expo in Charlotte! Stop by the W. R. MEADOWS booth #1915, we’d love to talk to you about our hot pour joint sealants and how they can work for you!
February 23-25 2022
W. R. MEADOWS HELPS YOU SEAL THE DEAL.
We’ve Got You Covered (in Sealant).
Ever driven on the 47,432 miles of U.S. interstate highways? If so, your tires have touched W. R. MEADOWS’ joint sealants. In fact, we’re the longest-lasting hot-applied joint sealant manufacturing company in the United States.
Ever get your kicks on Route 66? We were here for that, too. America’s Main Street, the Mother Road — that highway inspiring Billboard 100 songs and great American literature, was established in the summer of 1926, just four months after we launched our corporation. Our first product was the “SealTight ASPHALT EXPANSION JOINT,” which gave the joint a self-sealing functionality.
It was the Roaring ’20s. Car ownership nearly tripled. Route 66 helped Americans shave 200 miles off of the journey from Chicago to Los Angeles, thanks to visionary Oklahoma State Highway Commissioner, Cyrus Avery. And those highways remain intact because of pavement preservation materials.
Our highway construction customers tell us W. R. MEADOWS is synonymous with pavement preservation. Many of our formulations are still the basis for the most-often specified products by today’s concrete and asphalt pavement construction market.
So…How Do YOU Benefit from Our Heritage of Innovation?
Our innovation track ignited in 1926. You will gain from our heritage because we have nearly a century of vast, aggregated industry knowledge and DOT experience. Our dedicated investments in research and development mean you reap the benefits from our chemists’ premium product formulations. We will continue honoring our promise that you receive time-tested, reliable, cost-effective and long-lasting sealant life…so you always see a solid return on your investment.
Our American-made, user-friendly products are available to you on a local level via strategically placed distributor locations throughout the U.S.A. and worldwide. Our sales consultants are also local, no matter where you are. They welcome the opportunity to provide your team with complimentary training.

HI-SPEC
Hot-Applied Polymeric Pavement Joint Sealant
HI-SPEC polymeric, hot-applied sealant is a premium-quality, single-component joint sealing compound. It is formulated with a carefully balanced blend of 100% virgin polymer, asphalt plasticizers and inert, reinforcing fillers to produce a hot-pour joint sealant with excellent bonding properties, high resiliency, ductility, and resistance to degradation from weathering. It will not become brittle at low temperatures; it will not flow or migrate from the joint at temperatures up to 140º F (60º C).
USES
HI-SPEC is recommended for large-scale sealing of joints and cracks in Portland cement concrete and asphalt concrete pavements because of its excellent cost efficiency, long sealant life, and high return on investment. Typical applications include sealing expansion and contraction joints in concrete highways (both transverse and longitudinal), joints between concrete pavements, asphaltic shoulders, and random cracks in both Portland cement concrete and asphalt concrete pavements.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
- Provides an economical hot-pour, single-component sealant for large-scale sealing of Portland cement concrete and asphalt concrete pavements.
- Recognized by public and private sector sealing contractors as the “best available” and “most cost-efficient” joint sealant.
