Concrete Depot fibers are engineered for high-performance, nonstructural flatwork, precast and shotcrete applications. Description- 100% virgin monofilament homopolymer polypropylene.
- Hydrophilic, chemically inert, non-corrosive,non-magnetic.
- 0.75" (19mm) length.
- Meets ASTM C1116 and ICC ES AC32.
DosageValue/Benefit in Concrete- As plastic shrinkage reinforcement, reduces initial cracking and settlement.
- Reduces permeability, increases absorption and impact strength.
Applications- Interior/exterior, industrial/commercial slabs
- Flat work
- Cast-in-place
- Decorative concrete
