Adfil®Strux 3032 fiber is a synthetic macro fiber complying with ASTM C1116/C1116M Type III, which are a unique form of high strength, high modulus synthetic reinforcement that is evenly distributed throughout the concrete matrix. The macro fibers add toughness, impact, and fatigue resistance to concrete and improve residual strength and durability. Unlike traditional microfiber reinforcement, Adfil®Strux 3032 macro fibers are specifically engineered to provide post-crack control performance. Reinforced concrete with Adfil®Strux 3032 macro fibers has been shown to reliably achieve residual flexural strength values in excess of 150 psi (1 MPa) at dosages that can easily be batched and finished. Adfil®Strux 3032 macro fibers are 1.25 in. (32 mm) in length with an aspect ratio of 30 and have specifically been designed to replace welded wire reinforcement, steel fibers, and light rebar reinforcement.
Adfil®Strux 3032 macro fibers are a finisher-friendly fiber reinforcement, which are easier and safer to use, compared to other types of reinforcement. Adfil®Strux 3032 macro fibers may be used in a variety of ready mix, precast and shotcrete applications including slab-on-ground flooring, overlays, pavements, bridge decks, composite steel floor deck assemblies, mass concrete, thin-walled precast elements (septic tanks, vaults, walls, etc.), tunnel linings, pool construction and slope stabilization.
