Overview
FiberMat® is the ultimate crack inhibiting, waterproofing and sealing membrane. FiberMat® can be utilized to address two distinct distress application needs. Type A is applied as a superior wearing course for stand-alone surface treatment applications. Type B is a Stress Absorbing Membrane Interlayer (SAMI) used to reduce reflective cracking in pavement system overlays.
Description
FiberMat® consists of a combination of polymer-modified asphalt emulsion, chopped fiberglass strands and quality crushed aggregate. For the same reason fiberglass is specified in today’s concrete and asphalt mixes, the realized benefit of fiberglass is the superior tensile strength which absorbs and bridges pavement distresses, as well as minimizing and delaying reflective cracking.
