METOP SFD (STEEL FIBERS)
STEEL FIBERS FOR CONCRETE REINFORCEMENT
Description
Steel fiber concrete is more durable than plain concrete made from the same mix design.the fibers within the alkaline environment of the concrete are protected from corrosion with correct mix selection and using normal finishing processes very few fibres will be left exposed at the surface of the slab.
A suitable fiber should have a high l/l ratio (length /diameter ratio).To avoid fiber balling metop steel fibers are glued together in small bundles.
Metop steel fibers are made from prime quality hard drawn steel wire to ensure high tensile strength and close tolerances.
Hooked end which is generally considered as the best form of anchorage.
The gluing of the fibers into bundles guarantees quick and easy mixing with perfectly homogenous distribution.
