SSF Type-I “Hooked End” steel fiber products are cold-drawn mono-filament steel fibers for use in creating fiber-reinforced concrete (FRC). These fibers specifically designed for use in concrete products for the purpose of primary reinforcement and are available in loose or collated versions. These fibers are stainless steel to resist corrosion and their hooked end configuration allows for a predictable failure point in their unbending.
Meet the requirements of ASTM A820.

SSF TYPE I steel fibers can be added directly to the mixing system during or after the batching of the ingredients and mixed at high speed for a minimum of five minutes. Additional mixing does not adversely affect the distribution or overall performance of SSF TYPE I steel fibers. The addition of SSF TYPE I steel fibers at the normal recommended dosage rate does not require any mix design or application changes. A water reducer or super-plasticizer is recommended in concrete products where improved workability and finishability are desired.
