MasterFiber MAC 100
Synthetic macrofiber
How does MasterFiber MAC 100 work?
MasterFiber MAC 100 product, a synthetic macrofiber, is manufactured from a proprietary blend of polypropylene resins, in compliance with ASTM C 1116/C 1116M. MasterFiber MAC 100 product is specifically engineered for use as shrinkage and temperature (secondary) reinforcement and provides excellent plastic shrinkage control and reduced settlement cracking.
Recommended uses:
Industrial and warehouse floors
Commercial slab construction
Concrete pavement
White topping and overlays
Thin wall precast concrete
Shotcrete
Composite metal decks
What are the unique features of MasterFiber MAC 100?
Tensile strength of 60,000 psi (415 MPa)
Meets the requirements of ASTM C 1116/C 1116M “Standard Specification for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete”
Uniform distribution throughout the concrete mixture
Excellent finishability
Excellent post-first crack performance
What are the benefits of MasterFiber MAC 100?
Eliminates the need for welded-wire reinforcement (WWR) and small diameter bars used as secondary reinforcement, depending on the application
Effective tight crack control
Provides excellent plastic shrinkage crack reduction and settlement control
Improves green strengths – permits earlier stripping of forms with less rejection
Reduces construction time and overall labor and material costs
Increases flexural toughness, impact and shatter resistance
