Synthetic macro fibres for concrete

SikaFiber® Force-50 are 50 mm (1.97 in) long polyolefin macro fibres for use in structural concrete

Usage

For most types of in-situ cast structural concrete to reduce the amount of steel reinforcement, distribute stresses, increase structural properties or increase abrasion and fire resistance:

  • Ground bearing slabs
  • Precast concrete elements
  • Foundations
  • Building and infrastructure structural components
  • Marine/Coastal defence concrete
  • Shotcreting applications
Advantages

General

  • Packaged in soluble bags for easy dosing
  • Provides better cohesion of the fresh concrete
  • Dissipates strains in concrete and prevents structural cracking

Improves characteristics of hardened concrete

  • Crack bridging capacity
  • Higher flexural and shear strength
  • Improves loading capacity and ductility
  • Increases abrasion resistance
  • Increases resistance to freeze thaw attack

Fibres in reinforced concrete

  • Reduces or eliminates the amount of steel reinforcement
  • Easier to handle than reinforcement bars and meshes
  • No need for cutting or tying
  • Reduces construction time
  • Homogeneously embedded throughout concrete matrix
  • Fills edges, corners and difficult shapes

Compared to steel fibres

  • No corrosion stains on surface
  • Greater displacement capacity due to higher stresses
Packaging

4 kg (8.82 lb) water soluble bags containing the fibre packs

Typical Product Data
APPROVALS / STANDARDS

- CE Marking and Declaration of Performance to EN 14889-2 - Fibres for concrete. Polymer fibres Certificate No. 533591

Chemical Base

Polyolefin

Shelf Life

24 months from date of production

Storage Conditions

The product must be stored in original, unopened and undamaged sealed packaging in dry conditions at temperatures between +5 °C (+41 °F) and +30 °C (+86 °F). Always refer to packaging.

Density

~0,901 kg/l (~7.52 lb/gal)

Dimensions

Diameter ~0,715 mm (~0.0281 in)
Length ~50 mm (~1.97 in)

Product Declaration

Class II macro fibre (EN 14889-2)

Melting Point

~164 °C (~327 °F)

Concreting guidance

The standard rules of good concreting practice, concerning production and placing must be followed. Laboratory trials must be carried out before concreting on site, especially when using a new mix design. Fresh concrete must be cured properly and curing applied as early as possible.

Concrete Mixing Time

Extend the normal mixing time to ensure a homogeneous distribution of fibres in the concrete mix. This particularly applies to high fibre dosages (>5 kg/m 3 (8.43 lb/yd³) )

Tensile Strength

~450 N/mm 2 (~65267 psi) (MPa) (EN 14889-2)

Application
Compatibility

Compatible with other Sika admixtures

Dispensing

Add the fibres in the concrete mixer with the dry aggregates taking care to evenly distribute the fibres throughout the mix.

The fibres can be added when all the mix components have been added either in the concrete mixer or truck mixer. Mixing time will need to be increased to ensure a uniform fibre distribution (as a guide add 1 extra minute for every 1m 3 ). Do not add the fibres directly into the mixing water.

Recommended Dosage

3–6 kg/m 3 (5.06–10.1 lb/yd³)
