Enduro - Model 600 -Macro-synthetic Fiber
ENDURO 600 is the latest high performance macro-synthetic fiber developed from the innovative HPP technology which was pioneered and patented by Propex Concrete Systems. ENDURO 600 has been specifically designed to satisfy the demanding requirements of modern day shotcrete reinforcement and equipment.

Mixing Designs And Procedures: Enduro® 600 micro reinforcing is a mechanical, not chemical, process.The addition of Enduro 600 does not require any additional water or other mix design changes at normal rates. Enduro 600 fibers should be added to the mixer after batching the other concrete materials. Mixing time and speed are specified in ASTM C 94.
FINISHING: Conventional techniques and equipment can be used when finishing Enduro 600 fiber concrete.
APPLICATION RATE: The application rate for Enduro 600 fibers is 8 to 15 lbs per cubic yard (5 to 9 kg per cubic meter). Note: When used in conjunction with Fibermesh 150, the dosage rate and performance of the sprayed concrete can be optimized.
