ENDURO 600
ENDURO 600 MACROMACRO-SYNTHETIC FIBRE

ENDURO 600 macro-synthetic fibre developed from the innovative HPP (High
Performance Polymer) technology which was pioneered by Propex Concrete
Systems. ENDURO 600 macro-synthetic fibre is specifically engineered and
manufactured for use as concrete reinforcement and complies to European
Standard EN 14889-2:2006 Polymer Fibres - Definitions, specifications and
conformity. ENDURO 600 has been specifically designed to satisfy the demanding
requirements of modern day sprayed concrete reinforcement and equipment.
ADVANTAGES
Non-magnetic Rustproof Alkali proof Requires no minimum amount of
concrete cover Is always positioned in compliance with codes Safe and easier
to use than traditional reinforcement Saves time and hassle.

PRODUCT USE
TECHNICAL SERVICES
MIXING: The specified dosage per cubic metre should be

added to the mixer after batching the other concrete
materials. After the addition of the fibres, the concrete
should be mixed for sufficient time (minimum 5 minutes at
full mixing speed) to ensure uniform distribution of fibres
throughout the concrete.
PLACING: ENDURO 600 micro-reinforced concrete can be
pumped, sprayed or placed using conventional equipment
as with other fibrous concrete
FINISHING: Conventional techniques and equipment can
be used when finishing ENDURO 600 fibre concrete.
DOSAGE: The dosage rate for ENDURO 600
macro-synthetic fibres will vary depending on the
application, mix design and the toughness requirements of
each particular project. Typically, ENDURO 600 macrosynthetic fibre dosage will typically be in the range of
5 kg to 9 kg per cubic meter of concrete. When used in
conjunction with Fibermesh 150 fibres the dosage rate
and the performance of the sprayed concrete can be
optimized economically.
Propex Concrete Systems technical staff can offer advice
on dosage rates once performance requirements have
been established by the project designer/engineer.
Propex Concrete Systems is backed by our team of

reinforced concrete specialists who can carefully analyze
each project and provide fibre reinforced concrete design
solutions to ensure maximum project performance and
cost efficiency.

COMPATILITY
ENDURO 600 fibres are compatible with all concrete
admixtures and performance enhancing chemicals, but
require no admixtures to work.
SAFETY
No special handling is required with ENDURO 600
fibres. Full Material Safety Data Sheets are available on
request.
PACKAGING
ENDURO 600 macro-synthetic fibres are collated in
water soluble wrapped bundles/pucks to aid rapid
dispersion and mixing. The fibre bundles are packaged in
7 kg cartons. Store materials in a cool dry place. Do not
store in direct sunlight.
ENDURO 600 fibres are packaged, packed into cartons,
shrink wrapped and palletized for protection during
shipping.
