Description
Adfil®Durus TWIST50 fiber is a synthetic macro fiber complying with ASTM C1116/C1116M Type III. This macro fiber reinforcement is a high strength, high modulus synthetic macro reinforcement that imparts toughness, impact and fatigue properties to concrete. Adfil®Durus TWIST50 is an engineered twisted fiber providing superior post-crack control performance with a broad range of applications.
Adfil®Durus TWIST50 fibers are a finisher-friendly fiber reinforcement, which are easier and safer to use, compared to other types of reinforcement. These fibers may be used in a variety of ready mix, precast and shotcrete applications including slab-on-ground flooring, overlays, pavements, bridge decks, mass concrete, thin-walled precast elements (septic tanks, vaults, walls, etc.), tunnel linings, pool construction and slope stabilization.
Benefits
- Can be used to completely or partially replace light rebar, welded wire reinforcement, and steel fibers.
- Saves money through reduction or elimination of steel labor and material movement and storage costs, and fewer construction days.
- Enhances jobsite safety by eliminating handling of steel fibers, welded wire reinforcement, and rebar.
- Enhances jobsite safety by eliminating tripping hazards commonly associated with welded wire reinforcement and rebar.
- Eliminates concerns of proper positioning of reinforcement.
- Provides superior crack control due to the geometry, elastic modulus, and corrosion resistant properties (non-ferric). Due to unique fiber design and uniform three dimensional dispersion, both plastic and drying shrinkage cracking is reduced, improving the ductility and durability of the concrete.
- Ease of pumping, passes easily through pump grates.
- May be used to provide effective crack width control.
- Reduces shotcrete rebound and improves cohesion.
