MasterFiber MAC 100

Synthetic macrofiber

How does MasterFiber MAC 100 work?

MasterFiber MAC 100 product, a synthetic macrofiber, is manufactured from a proprietary blend of polypropylene resins, in compliance with ASTM C 1116/C 1116M. MasterFiber MAC 100 product is specifically engineered for use as shrinkage and temperature (secondary) reinforcement and provides excellent plastic shrinkage control and reduced settlement cracking.

Recommended uses:

  • Industrial and warehouse floors

  • Commercial slab construction

  • Concrete pavement

  • White topping and overlays

  • Thin wall precast concrete

  • Shotcrete

  • Composite metal decks

What are the unique features of MasterFiber MAC 100?
  • Tensile strength of 60,000 psi (415 MPa)

  • Meets the requirements of ASTM C 1116/C 1116M “Standard Specification for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete”

  • Uniform distribution throughout the concrete mixture

  • Excellent finishability

  • Excellent post-first crack performance

What are the benefits of MasterFiber MAC 100?
  • Eliminates the need for welded-wire reinforcement (WWR) and small diameter bars used as secondary reinforcement, depending on the application

  • Effective tight crack control

  • Provides excellent plastic shrinkage crack reduction and settlement control

  • Improves green strengths – permits earlier stripping of forms with less rejection

  • Reduces construction time and overall labor and material costs

  • Increases flexural toughness, impact and shatter resistance​
