Target Fixings Barflex Steel Reinforcing Material 8mm x 1m
£8.05 (exc VAT) per Length
Target Fixings Barflex Steel Reinforcing Material is a grade 304 austenitic stainless steel reinforcing material that has many unique properties. Being rolled from a plain round wire the fins are work hardened to a very high level whilst the core remains relatively soft. The subsequent tensioned, free-twisting process places the hardened fins in tension and the soft core into compression. The tensile strength of the base material is more than doubled during the manufacturing process. The deformation of the fins makes the bonding characteristics of the Bar Flex, far superior to alternative standard reinforcing materials. It is s a material that is both hard and soft (the fins are work hardened to a very high level whilst the core remains relatively soft) and simultaneously in tension and compression (the hardened fins are in tension and the soft core is in compression). As a result, the tensile strength of the base material is more than doubled during the manufacturing process. The deformation of the fins makes the bonding characteristics of the Bar Flex, far superior to alternative standard reinforcing materials.
BENEFITS:
- Flexible to allow for natural movement
- Remains strong to resist abnoemal loads
- Both soft and hard in certain areas of the bar for optimal strength
- Tensile strenght is double during manufacturer process
- Superior that alternative standard reinforcing materials
RECOMMENDED FOR:
- Ideal reinforcement material
- Ideal material for reinforcing cracked masonry ("crack stitching")
- Use in places where lintels have failed
- Use where differential movement in walls has caused separation
