CETEX 6mm monofilament PP fiber for crack-free plastering and floor screed.

6mm PP Micro-Fibers: The Top Choice for CraCK CONTROL

6mm POLYRPOPYLENE Fiber

CETEX 6mm Polypropylene Fibers are the most versatile reinforcement solution for the Indian construction industry. Engineered from 100% virgin monofilament polypropylene, these 6mm fibers are specifically designed to inhibit the formation of plastic shrinkage cracks in concrete, mortar, and plaster.

By creating a multidirectional reinforcement matrix, CETEX 6mm fibers act as a "secondary reinforcement," protecting your structure during the critical first 24 hours of curing.


Primary Applications

  • Internal & External Plastering: The ideal length for standard 12mm–20mm plaster coats.
  • Floor Screeds: Prevents curling and cracking in residential and commercial flooring.
  • Precast Elements: Enhances the green strength of precast pipes, blocks, and tiles, reducing breakage during de-molding.
  • Repair Mortars: Provides superior cohesion for patching and rehabilitation work.
  • Guniting & Shotcrete: Reduces rebound loss and improves bond strength.

 

Why 6mm is the "Essential" Fiber

  • Superior Dispersion: Unlike longer fibers that may "ball up" if over-mixed, the 6mm length disperses uniformly in seconds, ensuring every inch of your mix is reinforced.
  • Reduced Permeability: By eliminating micro-cracks, these fibers create a denser cement matrix, making your walls more resistant to water penetration and dampness.
  • Impact Resistance: Improves the "toughness" of the concrete surface, making it more resistant to chipping and abrasion.
  • Cost-Effective: A small dosage significantly reduces the need for future maintenance and crack repairs.
  • No Corrosion: Unlike steel mesh, PP fibers will never rust, ensuring the aesthetic longevity of your exterior walls.


Dosage & Mixing Guidelines

  • Standard Plaster/Mortar: 125g per 50kg bag of cement.
  • Standard Concrete/Screed: 0.6 kg to 1.0 kg per cubic meter ($m^3$).
  • Mixing: Can be added directly to the mixer with the aggregates or pre-mixed with dry cement. No special equipment is required.


The "Float Test" Quality Check

Quality Warning: Many "cheap" fibers in the market contain calcium carbonate fillers to increase weight. CETEX 6mm fibers are 100% Virgin PP. Because our specific gravity is $0.91$, our fibers will float on water. If your 6mm fiber sinks, it is adulterated and will not provide the same crack protection.
