FMAX | PRO fibers are specifically designed to reduce plastic shrinkage cracking in concrete and mortar. The fibers prevent and reduce cracks in fresh concrete caused by plastic shrinkage, plastic settlement, expansion and/or thermal shrinkage.
F-MAX | PRO fibers also contribute to the reduction of the water evaporation rate in concrete and to the increase of water evaporation rate in concrete and to the increase in resistance to impact, abrasion and spalling.
BENEFITS
• Easy to use, ship and store.
• Excellent finishability.
• Greater reduction of plastic shrinkage cracking than standard fiber.
• Substitutes metal wire mesh when used to reduce plastic shrinkage cracking.
• Does not require skilled labor.
• Non-corrodible and improved alkali resistance.
• Reduces permeability adding durability and service life of concrete.
• Greatly decreases aggregate segregation.
• Reduces bleeding and promotes uniformity.
• Improves resistance to impact, abrasion and shattering.
APPLICATIONS
• Industrial, commercial and residential slabs.
• Hydraulic structures.
• Precast.
• Water tanks, pipes and pools.
• Fiber cement.
• Stucco and mortars.
• Waterproofing and sealants.
