Performax HT

PERFORMAX HT Synthetic High Tensile Macro Fibers are uniquely engineered with higher tensile strength to provide better “build-in-reinforcement” as a replacement for steel fibers, welded-wire fabric (WWF), and conventional reinforcing bars in a variety of secondary reinforcement applications. In addition, PERFORMAX HT Synthetic High Tensile Macro Fibers helps minimize temperatures shrinkage cracking, plastic settlement, and plastic shrinkage cracking.

PERFORMAX™ HT Synthetic High Tensile Macro Fibers have a blend of 100% virgin polyolefin resins. PERFORMAX™ HT Synthetic Macro Fibers meet the requirements of ASTM C1116/C1116M “Standard Specification for Fiber- Reinforced Concrete” and the requirements of ICC ES AC32 Section 3.1.1 for plastic shrinkage reinforcement and 3.1.2 for shrinkage and temperature reinforcement.

Features and Benefits

  • Improved worksite safety by eliminating handling of WWF and light
    rebar
  • Uniform distribution of fibers throughout the concrete matrix
  • Excellent finishability
  • Superb post-first crack performance
  • Eliminates the need for WWF and conventional steel bars as a secondary form of reinforcement (does not replace primary/structural reinforcement)
  • Delivers tight crack control
  • Provides excellent plastic shrinkage crack reduction and settlement control
  • Improves green strengths and permits earlier stripping of forms with less rejection
  • Reduces construction time and overall labor and material costs
  • Increases flexural toughness, impact, and abrasion resistance
