-
ASTM A820 – Standard Specification for Steel Fibers for Concrete Reinforcement
-
ASTM C1116 – Standard Specification for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete
-
EN 14889-1: Steel Fibres for Concrete – Definitions, Specifications, and Conformity (Europe)
These standards ensure consistent quality and performance in your UHPC and SFRC projects.

Applications of Micro Steel Fibre in UHPC and Powder Concrete
Copper-coated micro steel fibres are widely used in:
-
High-Speed Rail Infrastructure: UHPC track slabs and joints for crack control and durability.
-
UHPC Bridges and Long-Span Structures: Enhanced flexural strength and impact resistance.
-
Tunnels and Underground Construction: Shotcrete and precast segments for ductility.
-
Powder Concrete Overlays: Ultra-thin overlays for structural repair and rehabilitation.
-
Precast UHPC Elements: Panels, façade components, and slim elements needing high strength.
-
Industrial Floors and Heavy-Use Pavements: Increased impact resistance under heavy loads.
-
Protective and Security Structures: Blast and impact resistance in UHPC barriers.
-
Bridge Decks and Overlays: Superior crack resistance and lifespan extension.
These fibres are ideal for SFRC, UHPC, powder concrete, and all advanced concrete systems where toughness and durability are critical.

FAQ
Copper-coated micro steel fiber is a high-tensile, fine-diameter steel fiber with a copper or brass surface coating. It is designed to enhance crack control, post-crack strength, and ductility in UHPC, SFRC, and powder-based concrete systems.
PNE® MS-6013 is commonly used in ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC), reactive powder concrete (RPC), precast elements, thin-section concrete, and other applications where micro crack control and tensile performance are critical.
The copper coating improves corrosion resistance, enhances fiber dispersion during mixing, and increases bond performance between the fiber and the cement matrix, especially in dense or low-water concrete mixes.
Micro steel fibers help bridge micro-cracks, delay crack propagation, and improve post-crack load-bearing capacity. This results in higher toughness, improved ductility, and better durability compared to plain concrete.
