PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
QC FIBERS, 3/4, 1/2 or 1/4 inch (1.9, 1.3 or .6 cm) monofilament virgin polypropylene
fibers, are used as a multi-directional secondary reinforcement in concrete and are
designed to inhibit plastic shrinkage cracking in slabs on grade construction.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
EXTREMELY EASY AND COST-EFFECTIVE TO USE
REDUCES UNSIGHTLY CRACKS CAUSED BY PLASTIC SHRINKAGE
INCREASES IMPACT AND ABRASION RESISTANCE
REDUCES PERMEABILITY TO MOISTURE AND CHLORIDES
RESISTANT TO ALKALI
WILL NOT RUST OR DETERIORATE LIKE WELDED WIRE MESH
NON-ABSORBENT AND WILL NOT AFFECT ADMIXTURES
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Use approximately 1.5 pounds (.7 kg) of QC FIBERS for each cubic yard of concrete (.8
cubic m). QC FIBERS can be added at the ready mixed plant or to the mixer truck at the job
site. Simply throw the entire bag of QC FIBERS into the center of the mixer and mix for 5
- 8 minutes at 3/4 speed. Overmixing will have no negative effects. Concrete finishers
will find it very easy to work with QC FIBERS. The 3/4, 1/2 or 1/4 inch (1.9, 1.3 or .6
cm), low denier design greatly reduces surface bristles and is recommended for
architectural concrete as well as conventional slabs.
