Rubber Removal Equipment | | Rampart’s Runway Rubber Removal Vehicle – “The Blaster”
Rampart’s Runway Blaster is a truck mounted runway rubber removal vehicle, which is capable of removing rubber from airfield runways at rates exceeding 20,000 sf per hour. The Blaster is self-contained and can cease removal operations within 30 seconds of notification and can exit the runway in the time required to drive at highway speed to the nearest ramp (typically within 3 minutes of notification). The Blaster uses only potable water, which is environmentally safe. No chemicals of any type are used. The rubber is vacuumed from the runway surface and is properly disposed in a landfill.

Rampart uses Tymco sweeper/vacuum trucks to collect the rubber debris following removal by the Blaster. During the clean up operation the rubber, dirt and debris removed by the high-pressure water blast is vacuumed from the runway surface. A portion of the water used during removal is also collected. Water is typically decanted from the vacuum truck along the edge of the runway where its allowed to re-absorb in to the ground. The rubber can be transported in the vacuum truck to a designated location where it can be properly disposed. Typically the vacuum truck can hold all of the rubber removed during a removal work shift.
