Synthetic macro fibre for concrete and shotcrete

SikaFiber® Force-60 is a macro synthetic fibre for structural use in shotcrete and concrete.

Usage

SikaFiber® Force-60 is suitable for the use in sprayed concrete and in-situ cast concrete.

The main uses for SikaFiber® Force-60 are in the following applications:

  • Sprayed concrete for excavation stabilisation in tunnelling and mining
  • Sprayed concrete for rock and ground stabilisation
  • Sprayed concrete for temporary stabilisation use
  • Replacement of steel reinforcement in sprayed concrete applications
  • Slab on grade concrete applications / industrial floors based on ground
  • Foundations with fibre reinforced concrete
  • Precast concrete elements
  • Concrete applications, especially surfaces with high abrasion resistance
Advantages

With the addition of SikaFiber® Force-60, the following improvements in the hardened concrete characteristics can be achieved:

  • Highly increased energy absorption for sprayed concrete
  • Crack bridging capacity, especially at large crack openings
  • Increased durability due to high chemical resistance
  • Rust-free surfaces
Packaging

SikaFiber® Force-60 is available in water soluble pucks packed in 5kg (11 lb) water soluble paper bags or bigbags

Colour

White, straight fibres with embossing

Typical Product Data
APPROVALS / STANDARDS

CE-marking and Declaration of Performance as polymer fibres for use in concrete, mortar or grout according to EN 14889-2:2006, based on certificate of constancy of performance of the construction product issued by notified product certification body.

Chemical Base

Polyolefine

Shelf Life

24 months shelf life from date of production if stored properly in undamaged, unopened, original sealed packaging.

Storage Conditions

Storage at temperatures between 5 °C (41 °F) and 30 °C (86 °F). Protect from direct sunlight, frost, water and contamination.

Density

~0,91 kg/l (~7.59 lb/gal)

Dimensions

Length ~60 mm (~2.36 in), equivalent diameter ~0,84 mm (~0.0331 in) (500 tex)

Melting Point

~170 °C (~338 °F)

Concreting guidance

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

Concrete Mixing Time

In order to ensure a homogeneous distribution of the fibres in the concrete mix, it might be useful to extend the mixing time, especially at high dosages of the fibres (> 6 kg/m 3 (10.1 lb/yd³) ).

Tensile Strength

~430 MPa (~62366 psi) (~48 cN/tex) (EN 10002-1, strain rate: 7 %/min)

Application
Dispensing

SikaFiber® Force-60 is dosed directly in the concrete mixer together with the aggregates. SikaFiber® Force-60 can also be dosed to the truck mixer; in that case a minimum mixing time of 5 minutes is required.

Recommended Dosage

3–10 kg/m 3 (5.06–16.9 lb/yd³)
