Glued-End Hooked Steel Fibres for SFRC | PIONEER®

High-Strength Steel Fibre Reinforcement for Durable Concrete

What Are Glued-End Hooked Steel Fibres in Fiber Reinforced Concrete?

PNE® GS-6060 glued end-hooked steel fibres are high-tensile, cold-drawn steel fibers bonded into low-clump glued bundles, ensuring easy feeding and uniform mixing.
The hooked-end anchorage provides superior pull-out resistance, forming a 3D reinforcement network inside concrete.

These steel fibers can be used as an alternative to welded wire mesh in selected applications, subject to project-specific design and performance requirements.

  • industrial flooring

  • tunnel shotcrete

  • precast concrete elements

  • high-strength concrete

  • warehouse slabs & pavements

This configuration aligns with global SFRC practices and improves crack width control, durability, and load transfer.

Applicable standards and test methods

PIONEER® steel fibers are developed with reference to internationally recognized standards for steel fiber products and fiber-reinforced concrete. Applicable standards and documentation depend on the product grade, intended application, project requirements, and destination market.​

  • ASTM A820/A820M — Standard Specification for Steel Fibers for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete 

  • ASTM C1116/C1116M — Standard Specification for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete 

  • EN 14889-1:2006 — Fibres for Concrete — Part 1: Steel Fibres — Definitions, Specifications and Conformity 

These standards provide technical references for steel fiber selection and use in precast concrete, industrial floors, shotcrete, and other fiber-reinforced concrete applications. Product suitability should be confirmed according to the project design, required performance, and applicable local regulations.

Is Steel Fiber Still the Best Choice for Your Project?

Steel fiber is widely used in steel fiber reinforced concrete, offering high strength and reliable structural reinforcement in slabs and industrial floors.

However, in real construction, its performance often depends heavily on mixing and placement. Issues such as fiber balling, uneven distribution, surface exposure, and potential corrosion can affect workability, finishing quality, and long-term durability.

Where Steel Fiber Can Slow Down Your Project

On site, steel fiber can increase handling effort, affect pumpability, and lead to inconsistent reinforcement if not properly dispersed.

Exposed fibers may also interfere with finishing, making it harder to achieve a smooth and uniform surface.

Steel Fiber Vs Macro Synthetic Fiber.avif

A More Efficient Alternative for Modern Concrete

Rimix™ 3D macro synthetic fiber provides a more consistent reinforcement approach with easier mixing, uniform dispersion, and better finishing performance.

No corrosion risk. No surface exposure. Easier placement.

It helps improve construction efficiency while delivering stable, long-term concrete performance.

FAQ

  • PNE® GS-6060 is a glued end-hooked steel fiber for fiber-reinforced concrete. It combines a bonded-bundle supply format with hooked-end steel fiber geometry for applications where fiber distribution and post-crack performance are part of the project requirements.

  • The glued bundle is designed to support controlled handling and batching. During mixing, the bundles separate so that individual steel fibers can disperse through the concrete. Actual dispersion depends on the concrete mix, dosage, batching sequence and mixing conditions.

  • GS-6060 is supplied as glued bundles, while a loose hooked-end product such as PNE® ES-6660 is supplied as individual fibers. Both use hooked-end geometry, but their handling, batching and product specifications differ.

  • Final dosage should be selected according to the current PNE® GS-6060 TDS, concrete application, required performance, applicable test method and project specification. Do not select dosage based on a generic steel fiber value alone.

  • It may be considered in selected applications where project design, performance testing and applicable approvals support substitution or reduction of conventional reinforcement. It should not be treated as a universal replacement.
