Home My WebLink AboutCG4 AND A17ENDURO 600 MACRO -SYNTHETIC FIBER ENDURO 600 is the latest high performance macro -synthetic fiber developed from the innovative HPP technology which was pioneered and patented by Fbermesh. ENDURO 600 has been specifically designed to satisfy the demanding requirements of modern day concrete and shotcrete re, nforcement and equipment. Specifically engineered and manufactured in our ISO 9001:2008 certified facility for use as concrete reinforcement. FEATURES & BENEFITS • Geometrically engineered to resist matrix pullout • Increases flexural toughness • Reduces rebound • Increases cohesion and reduces segregation • Increases impact and shatter resistance • Non-magnetic • Rustproof • Chemically inert and alkali proof • Reduced wear on concrete pumps and hoses • Safe and easy to handle • Simplified logistics • Economical alternative to steel wire mesh and/or steel fibers PRIMARY APPLICATIONS • Sprayed concrete • Precast • Mining • Tunnel linings • Channel Linings • Slope stabilization • Slab on ground • Pavement COMPLIANCE • Complies with ASTM C 1116/C1116M Type III Fiber Reinforced Concrete . • Complies with European Standard EN 14889-2: 2006 Fibres for Concrete Part 2: Class II and carries CE marking • ISO 9001:2008 Quality Assured Facility CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PKUJF WKJL&a Absorption Nil Ignition Point 759.2°F (404°C) Acid & Salt Resistance Nigh Melt Point 320°F (160°C) Alkali Resistance Alkali Proof Specific Gravity 0.91 Electrical Conductivity Low Thermal Conductivity Low Fiber Length* 2 in (51 mm) Equivalent Diameter 0.032 in (0.81 mm) * Available in other cut lengths PRODUCT USE - MIXING: The specified dosage per m3 or yd3 should be added to the mixer after batching the other concrete materials. After the addition of the fibers, the concrete should be mixed for sufficient time (batch plant: minimum 5 minutes or 70 revolutions) at full mixing speed to ensure uniform distribution of the fibers throughout the concrete mix. Mixing times may vary, please contact Fibermesh representative. PLACING: ENDURO 600 macro synthetic polyolefin fibers can be pumped, sprayed or placed using conventional equipment. FINISHING: Conventional techniques and equipment can be . used when finishing ENDURO 600 fiber concrete. APPLICATION RATE: The application rate for ENDURO 600 macro -synthetic fibers will vary depending on the application, mix design and the toughness requirements of each particular_ project Typically, ENDURO 600 macrosynthetic fibers dosage will' be in the range of 4 pcy to 15 pcy (2.4 kg/m3 to 9 kg/m3) of concrete. When used in conjunction with Fibermesh 150 fibers the dosage rate and the performance of the sprayed concrete can be optimized economically. For specific performance and dosage recommendations see your local Fibermesh representative. COMPATIBILITY ENDURO 600 fibers are compatible with all concrete admixtures and performance enhancing chemicals. , SAFETY No special handling is required with ENDURO 600 macrosynthetic fibers. Full Safety Data Sheets are available upon request.' PACKAGING ENDURO 600 macrosynthetic fibers are collated in degradable water soluble wrapped bundles (pucks), packaged in a range of box weights from 15 to 22 Ib (7 to 10 kg). Other packaging options are available such as bulk bags. Store materials in a cool dry place. Do not store in direct sunlight.
