The Stripe Hog® rubber and paint marking removal system is the most advanced system of its kind world wide, and award-winning in the industry. It can also cure compound removal and surface preparation. No other system offers the same level of versatility and performance on a single truck chassis. It is faster, cleaner, and more easily adapted to the pavement maintenance needs of today’s major airports.
The most remarkable attribute of the Stripe Hog is its ability to remove markings and rubber from asphalt and concrete without causing any significant damage to the surface.
ROAD PAVEMENT MARKING REMOVAL AND CLEANING SYSTEM
The Stripe Hog captive waterblasting system is ideally suited for all airport related, pavement cleaning and marking removal projects. Its superior performance is achieved through the three systems listed below.
Firstly, the Stripe Hog has a 40,000psi (2,727bar) ultra high pressure water pump and operates with only clean water – no chemicals or additives. Rubber deposits, paint, and thermoplastic cannot begin to withstand the effective force of the needle sharp water jets. A 2,700gal (10,220L) stainless steel, clean water tank supports up to 4.5 hours of continuous operation. The complete elimination of all pre-treatment methods saves time and money.
Additionally, secondary clean-up operations are completely eliminated with the Stripe Hog 1,400cfm (2,378m³/hr) vacuum recovery system. There is no more run-off, rinsing, secondary sweeper or vacuum trucks, or requirement for extra manpower and equipment on projects. The recovery of liquid and solid debris occurs immediately, simultaneous with the blasting process. Given the proper weather conditions, new markings can be applied at the same location in 20 to 30 minutes. Your removal project will be carried quicker, and more cleanly, without unnecessary support equipment, and with fewer employees. You will save money, enjoy better results, and have greater confidence in your care of the environment.
DEBRIS AND LIQUID SEPARATION SYSTEM
Thirdly, the frustration of a time consuming, complex disposal process has also been eliminated with the Stripe Hog, because polymers and flocculates are no longer needed for the separation of the recovered liquid and debris. A unique, patent pending process also increases your operating time and the return on your investment. While disposal requirements may vary significantly from one country to the next, we guarantee this process to be far less complicated and costly then that of our competitors.
Mobility and manoeuvrability are essential to superior performance. Operating a system that requires trailers or additional support trucks will only increase your costs. Trailers can also be an operational hazard even in the hands of the most skilled operators. Support tanker or pump trucks require additional operators, fuel, and maintenance, which increase your costs. With the Stripe Hog, everything is on one truck. One individual can easily operate a truck mounted blasting system without assistance. Superior design and manoeuvrability mean greater efficiency and lower costs for the airport.
RANGE OF USES
Regardless of what your marking removal needs will be, or how difficult they are to access, the Stripe Hog and its blasting head options will very likely be able to do the job. Examples of applications where the Stripe Hog is easily adapted with outstanding results include:
- Taxiway, apron and gate markings
- Access, service and ring roads
- Aircraft parking stands and hanger floors
- Parking lots and garages
- Runways
PAINT MARKING AND RUBBER REMOVAL
In a growing number of countries around the world, the Stripe Hog has become the leader in non-destructive rubber and paint marking removal.
