DESCRIPTION

KKS® FIBER PP-12 is high quality micro monofilament polypropylene fibers in compliance with the requirements of ASTM C1116-91 Standard Specification for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete and Shotcrete.

They are designed to minimize and control shrinkage cracks in concrete.

ADVANTAGES

Due to their fineness and a special surface treatment, KKS® FIBER PP-12 is uniformly distributed to provide an internal reinforcement to:

• Reduce plastic shrinkage cracking
• Improve fresh concrete cohesion
• Improve impact and abrasion resistance
• Improve concrete durability.

USES

KKS® FIBER PP-12 fibers reinforce fresh concrete and reduce its shrinkage cracking. KKS® FIBER PP-12 is used for:

• Slabs
• Pavements
• Precast concrete products
• Heavy-duty industrial floors
• Overlays
• Shotcrete
• Polypropylene fibers are not intended to replace structural steel.

INSTRUCTION FOR USE

APPLICATION

Simply add KKS® FIBER PP-12 to the concrete mixer at a rate of 1 bag per cubic meter. A mixing time of 3 to 5 minutes is necessary to ensure the bag dissolution and therefore a uniform fiber dispersion. For better dispensation, KKS® FIBER PP-12 should be mixed into batching after concrete aggregate crushing together with mechanism.

KKS® FIBER PP-12 is compatible with all KKS admixtures.

The standard procedures for placing, finishing and curing concrete shall be followed. In addition, proper reinforcement and joint spacing should be observed.
