AR GLASSFIBRE CHOPPED STRAND is a high integrity AR glass fiber chopped strand designed for using in dry mix systems or other premixing processes for subsequent moulding into a GRC component.
This kind of chopped strand has a sizing system optimized for abrasion resistance and strand integrity during blending with dry materials .The low- tex strand permits efficient reinforcement at low dosages .It is particularly suited to the preparation of pre-bagged mixes of special mortars or renders .It may also be used in the manufacture by precasting of standard GRC components.
