Sika® Fibermesh-650 S
Macro-Synthetic Fibers
Sika® Fibermesh-650 S is a graded macro-synthetic fiber complying with ASTM C1116, Type III. Sika® Fibermesh-650 S is 100% virgin copolymer fiber designed to provide a uniform three dimensional reinforment system in the concrete or sprayed mix. Specifically engineered and manufactured in an ISO 9001 certified facility. Sika® Fibermesh-650 S was formerly called Fibermesh 650S and SikaFiber Force 650S.
- Uniquely graded fiber design to minimize voids in the concrete matrix.
- Increased energy absorption for sprayed concrete
- Cost-effective, three-dimensional reinforcement alternative to secondary wire mesh or rebar, and steel fibers.
- Can be utilized to reduce rebar or wire mesh.
- Increased safety on job site; remove lifting of reinforcement, bending to tie, and tripping hazard.
- Reduction in construction time. No cutting, placing, tying, and chairing required.
- Reducing embodied carbon through the replacement of convention steel reinforcement with synthetic structural fibers.
- Increase ductility, flexural toughness and post first crack reinforement of concrete.
- Increased durability due to high chemical resistance and corrosion free.
- Inhibits plastic shrinkage and settlement cracking.
- Greater energy absorption at higher displacements.
- Improves impact, shatter, and abrasion resistance of concrete.
- Reduces permeability.
- Pumpable reinforcement with reduced wear on pumps and hoses.
- Toss in degradable bags make it easy to batch.
