SikaFiber® Enduro® Mirage

Macro-Synthetic Fiber

SikaFiber® Enduro® Mirage is macro synthetic reinforcing fiber complying with ASTM C 1116, Type III. SikaFiber® Enduro® Mirage is 100% virgin copolymer fiber deisgned to provide a uniform three dimensional reinforcement system in the concrete mix.  Specifically engineered and manufactured in an ISO 9001 certified manufacturing facility. SikaFiber® Enduro® Mirage previously Enduro Mirage or SikaFiber Force MS25.

  • Easy to batch with improved finishing characteristics.
  • Efficient and cost-effective, three-dimensional reinforcement alternative to steel wire mesh, rebar, and steel fibers.
  • Sustainable reinforcement solution by reducing embodied carbon through the replacement of conventional steel reinforcement with synthetic structural fibers.
  • Reduction in construction time. No cutting, placing, tying, and chairing required.
  • Safer and easier to use than wire mesh and rebar.
  • Increase durability, ductility, and flexural toughness of concrete.
  • Reduces plastic shrinkage, settlement, and drying shrinkage cracking in concrete.
  • Improves impact and shatter resistance of concrete.
  • Geometrically engineered to resist matrix pullout.
  • Will not corrode, non-magnetic and highly alkali resistant.
  • Pumpable safe reinforcement.
