NOVOCON® HE1050

NOVOCON® HE1050 STEEL FIBRE


Novocon® HE1050 steel fibres are designed specifically for the reinforcement of
concrete, mortars and other cementitious mixes. Novocon® HE1050 is a cold
drawn wire fibre, deformed with hooked ends to provide optimum performance
within the concrete mix. Novocon® HE1050 steel fibres are European Standard -
EN 14889-1:2006 compliant and have been specifically designed to meet or
exceed the defined performance requirements.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
• Provides uniform multi-directional concrete reinforcement
• Increases crack resistance, ductility, energy absorption or toughness of concrete
• Improves impact resistance, fatigue endurance and shear strength of concrete
• High tensile strength fibre bridging joints and cracks to provide tighter
aggregate interlock resulting in increased load carrying capacity
• Provides increased ultimate load bearing capacity which allows possible
reduction of concrete section
• Requires less labour to incorporate into concrete than conventional
reinforcement
• Offers economical concrete reinforcement solutions with greater project
scheduling accuracy
• Ideally suited for hand or vibratory screeds, laser screeds and all conventional
finishing equipment

PRIMARY APPLICATIONS
• Ground supported slabs • Precast
• Suspended Floors • Overlays
• Jointless floors • Walls
• External roads & pavements • Blast-resistant concrete

COMPLIANCE
• Complies with European Standard EN 14889-1:2006 Fibres for
Concrete Part 1: Group I and carries CE marking
• Conforms to ASTM A820/A820M-04, Type I cold drawn segment wire

NOMINAL PHYSICAL PROPERTIES


• Fibre Length 50 mm
• Equivalent Diameter 1.0 mm
• Aspect Ratio 50
• Tensile Strength 1250 N/mm²
• Deformation Hooked End
• Appearance Bright and clean wire
