VG-10 bitumen is a lower viscosity grade, meaning it is relatively less viscous and flows more easily compared to higher-grade bitumen. It is typically used for low-traffic roads and as a tack coat in road construction.

Tack coat is a thin layer of bitumen applied to the existing pavement surface before the application of a new layer of asphalt to ensure good adhesion.
VG-10 bitumen is also used in some surface dressing applications and as a sealant for small cracks and joints
