MasterFiber™ FS3N
MasterFiber FS3N steel fiber is a low carbon, drawn-wire product for reinforced concrete. The ends of the MasterFiber FS3N fibers are mechanically deformed in order to provide maximum adhesion between the steel fiber and concrete.
MasterFiber FS3N steel fibers redistribute the forces within the concrete, restraining the mechanism of formation, propagation and the extension of cracks. The result is a more ductile reinforced concrete that is able to maintain a residual capacity in the post-cracking phase.
Features
- Loose fibers specially designed to avoid balling problems
- Excellent temperature-shrinkage reinforcement
Benefits

- Improves safety
- Optimizes sprayed lining thickness
- Reduces rebound
- Reduces tunnel lining construction time
- Improves impact resistance
- Provides higher energy absorption
- Handles variable loads
- Reduces temperature variations
- Better aesthetic quality of the product
- Faster industrialized production process through the partial or total elimination of steel reinforcement cages
- Improves damage resistance during transportation and placing
- Reduces concrete thickness as no reinforcement cover depth is required
- Improves durability in aggressive environments
