SikaFiber®-100 Recycled PP48 Impact
SikaFiber®-100 Recycled PP48 Impact is a 100% recycled polypropylene macro structural fiber that delivers optimum performance in highly corrosive environments. It is suited in pre-cast, slabs on ground among many other applications. This product achieves high Fr values (residual flexural strength based on EN 14651 testing) and enhanced toughness values (based on ASTM 1550) in slabs on grade and shotcrete applications.
- Increases concrete toughness, impact resistance, and ductility
- Decreases the tendency to cracking in both fresh and hardened state of the concrete
- Reduces mechanical wear on pumps and pipelines
- High resistance to chemical attacks and alkalis
- It is safer and easier to use than traditional reinforcement
- Does not corrode in aggressive waters
- Saves time and processes during the application and construction process of the concrete element
- Australian made
We are Sustainably Impactful. Sika's impact products, assessed by the Sika Sustainable Portfolio Management (SPM) methodology, deliver both optimised performance and sustainability benefits. Designed to be fit for purpose, these advanced solutions meet the highest standards against sustainability.
