Macro Fiber 54

Macro polypropylene synthetic fiber with twisted bundle

Macro Fiber 54 is a macro synthetic reinforcement fiber with twisted bundle manufactured of 100% virgin copolymer/polypropylene fibers with excellent alkali resistant, impermeable, non-corrosive and non-magnetic properties.

Macro Fiber 54 is an excellent alternative to the traditional reinforcement steel mesh in order to significantly reduce the plastic shrinkage cracking and enhance the durability and the mechanical properties of the cementitious mixes.

Advantages
  • Controls and inhibits crack formulation caused by plastic shrinkage, settlement or other internal stresses in concrete.
  • Can be used as a replacement to traditional steel mesh or steel fiber reinforcement.
  • Cost effective, replaces secondary reinforcements steel mesh.
  • High tensile strength.
  • Easily distributed throughout the cementitious mix.
  • Compatible with all types of cement and concrete admixtures.
  • Rust free.
Applications

Macro Fiber 54 is ideally designed to decrease the plastic shrinkage cracking in the following applications:

  • Tunnel segments.
  • Pre-cast concrete.
  • Industrial floors.
  • Composite decks.
  • Pavements.
  • Slabs on piles.
  • Foundation slabs.
  • Shear reinforcement in prestressed elements.
Packaging

Macro Fiber 54 is available in 0.5 kg bags.

Storage

Store in original unopened packaging in dry and shaded areas.

Dosage

Dosage of Macro Fiber 54 will vary depending on the area of application and the required properties of concrete mixes.

Typical dosage is between 2.0 - 5.0 kg/m³ of concrete.

Standards

Macro Fiber 54 complies with the specifications of EN 14889-2, Type II and ASTM C1116, Type III.
