Polypropylene fiber "POLIARM"

A MODERN ALTERNATIVE TO METAL FIBER AND STEEL MESH REINFORCEMENT

INTENDED USE

«PoliArm» fiber - is a texturized synthetic macrofiber intended for three-dimensional reinforcement of concrete. It consists of individual hard fibers of sinusoidal waved shape made of oriented virgin polypropylene and treated with a special compound to improve adhesion with concrete.

FIBER LENGTH: «PoliArm» 25-55mm

PROPERTIES PoliArm fiber «PoliArm»

  • Increase of compression strength and bending tensile strength –
up to 24%
  • Increase of impact and fatigue strength
Yes
  • Reduction of bleeding
Yes
  • Prevention of concrete mix segregation
Yes
  • Improvement of concrete fire resistance
Yes
  • Reduction of labor costs and work completion time
up to 40%
  • Reduction of weight without degradation of strength properties of concrete structures as compared with steel fiber
Yes
  • No damage to concrete mixing and conveying equipment
Yes
В 1 м3 of concrete mix contains 168,000 pcs. PoliArm polypropylene fibers «PoliArm»* compared with 45,000 pcs. steel fibers* – i.e. 3.7 times more elementary fibers.
*At dosage rate of PoliArm fiber «PoliArm» 4kg/м3 length of fibre 40 mm.
