2026 STEPP MANUFACTURING SBF 200 Gallon Bottom Fired Asphalt Kettle
Asphalt milling reclamation hinges on keeping recycled material at the right temperature without scorching it. The heating method and kettle design determine whether you get usable patch stock or waste that lands in a landfill. A bottom-fired system with oil-jacketed heating gives you the thermal control to bring millings back to working consistency without degradation.

2-ton capacity in a tow-behind configuration

Zero hours and zero miles, this unit arrives ready to deploy on your next project.
