Helix-detailWhat is Helix Micro Rebar?

Helix Micro Rebar is not a steel fibre; instead it is a replacement for rebar. Helix Micro Rebar has a tensile strength over four times greater than standard rebar. It will not rust or corrode due to its zinc coating. It can be used in almost any situation as a replacement for rebar.

Replacing rebar or mesh with Helix Micro Rebar has many quantifiable benefits:
  • Improved crack resistance
  • Increased durability
  • Improved shear strength
  • Easy placing and finishing
  • Improved worker safety
  • Streamlined timeline/logistics
  • Better concrete
  • Direct/Indirect cost savings (20% or more)

 

Helix  Micro Rebar provides ‘Proactive Reinforcement’ since unlike rebar, and other forms of reinforcement, it engages the material before it actually fails. This enhances the concrete’s ductility, durability, and toughness.

Helix Micro Rebar Applications:

Helix Micro Rebar can be used in any concrete element/ application, including the following: 

  • Structural Foundations
  • Structural Walls
  • Structural Floors
  • Piles/Piers
  • Beams/Columns
  • Slab On Metal Deck
  • Shotcrete
  • Tunnelling
  • Internal and External Pavement
  • Precast
  • Flatwork
  • Water Containment
  • Marine Projects
  • And Many More
