    • Permit development of hair cracks
    • Water vapour seeps to the reinforcement
    • Melts in heat
    • Release toxic carbon monoxide upon burning
    • PVC cover made of recycled material

    Fiber Concrete Spacers are preferred for:

    Rock Solid Strength: Made under strict quality control. Compressive strength not
    less than 60 Mpa Hence no deformation in Heat / cold.
    Precision: Cast in precision dies. Ensures accurate dimensions, well under prescribed
    tolerances.
    Easy Identification: Size of spacers is embossed on every piece. Hence, chances
    of errors are eliminated.
    Fire Resistance: Made from high quality concrete, which is non combustible.
    Excellent Compatibility: Concrete to concrete bond is perfect. No hair crack
    develop between the spacer and the surrounding concrete.
    Excellent Quality: Manufactured in accordance with ISO 9001-2008.
    Low Permeability: Tests on our spacers indicate low water and chloride iron
    penetration.

    cast concrete cover blocks
    whose compressive
    strength is not less than
    that of surrounding
    concrete.
