Chemrite Steel Fibre

Cold drawn Steel fibre for Cementitious Mortars and Concrete
________________________________________________________
Product Steel fibres, from industry specialist have set a new
Description standard for concrete reinforcement with their unique
combination of flexibility and cost-efficient
____________________________________________________________________
Advantages The main advantages are:
- Fibre system provides superior resistance to
cracking in hardened state concrete, as well as
maximum resistance to damage from heavy impact
and dynamic loading.
- Improved pump ability and optimized fibre
distribution
Even distribution of fibers throughout the concrete.
A tougher surface with fewer bleed holes
- Enhanced load bearing capability. Improved
flexural properties. Reduced absorption of water,
chemicals etc.
- Cost savings in secondary reinforcement steel
mesh for ground supported slabs

Application Details
______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Dispensing Chemrite Steel Fibre should be ideally added at the
batching plant; although in some cases this may not be
possible, then site addition can be done
______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Curing Standard curing practice must be followed.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Safety Chemrite Steel Fibre is non-hazardous & non toxic.
