Description

This acrylic fiber significantly improves concrete performance by providing secondary reinforcement and eliminating plastic shrinkage cracking.

Features

Alkali resistant and non-corrosive
Insoluble in water
No fiber protrusion for easy finishing
High impact resistance
Excellent bond with concrete paste

Use up to 20 grams of fiber per 22.7 kg (50 lb) of concrete mix. Proper mixing and finishing techniques ensure optimal results.

Instructions

This high-performance concrete additive enhances durability and reduces cracking. It provides secondary reinforcement, improves impact resistance, and can eliminate plastic shrinkage cracking by up to 100%.

Typical Dosage

Use acrylic fibers sparingly. A standard dosage is up to 20 g of fiber per 22.7 kg (50 lb) bag of Buddy Rhodes™ concrete mix. Exceeding this amount may significantly reduce workability.

Mixing

The fibers are monofilament and have a high surface area, so proper dispersion is critical. Do not add fibers all at once. For best results, either pre-blend the fibers into the mix water or slowly introduce them into the wet concrete slurry during mixing. Adjust the technique as needed for your specific mix design.

Finishing

If fibers are visible after curing, they can be carefully burned off using a propane torch. Follow all fire and safety precautions when doing so.
