TU Cloth

TU Cloth

TU Cloth is the sheet of carbon fiber woven. It is attached to concrete structures with room temperature setting resin for reinforcement. The sheets are applied parallel to the main reinforcement steel when there is insufficient flexural proof stress and parallel to the hoop reinforcement steel when there is insufficient shear proof stress. Since it both improves the shear proof stress and binding force effect of the concrete, TU Cloth provides excellent toughness [resistance to deformation].

Workability:

* Outstanding Impregnation and Defoaming of Resin
* Easy Handling:
Light and compact package. Can be rolled-up and carried
* Excellent Flexibility:
Easy to be shaped against uneven surfaces. TU Cloth is a woven.
When cutting in the carbon fiber direction, the fibers do not come apart.
