Advantages versus  WWF

UltraFiber 500™ is Superior to Welded Wire Fabric for Secondary Reinforcement

UltraFiber 500™ has many advantages versus welded wire fabric when used for secondary reinforcement. (see all 6 pictures below)
 


 

UltraFiber 500™ is easy to use, whereas welded wire fabric is often installed incorrectly, such as here laying on the grade surface.
 
UltraFiber 500™ helps to prevent plastic shrinkage cracking; welded wire fabric does not.
 
UltraFiber 500™ helps prevent craze crack cracks; welded wire fabric does not.
 
UltraFiber 500™ helps prevent temperature cracks, welded wire fabric does not.
 
UltraFiber 500™ does not rust or corrode, or require contractor storage or multiple handling.
 
      

UltraFiber 500™ saves labor, and costs less to buy and install. It's also safer with no cutting, no pulling, and no roll-backs.
 

     
 
Welded wire fabric has no benefit to hydration or strength. Welded wire fabric is not a renewable resource, not a green built product, and has unstable pricing. For all these reasons and more, UltraFiber 500™ is a better choice than welded wire fabric for secondary reinforcement.
