Kimisteel INOX 800
Stainless steel unidirectional reinforcing fabric with high resistance, used in structural reinforcing system
Kimisteel INOX 800 is a unidirectional reinforcing fabric made out of micro stainless steel strands, very resistant against corrosion and very useful in case of support affected by rising damp issues and in general exposed to aggressive environments. The product, combined with inorganic matrix, can be used in consolidation works of existing masonry and RC structures.
Applications
• Reinforcing masony and RC structures; • Construction of reinforced masonry perimetral beams; • Construction of reinforced masonry structures

Application
For more details about a specific intervention, please see the thecnical specifications and technical data sheets of each single product involved. Prepare the surface to be reinforced with a proper cleaning removing any old material that can affect the adhesion of the reinforcing system and apply eventually mechanical anchoring devices or adequate holes to allow anchoring of the ends of the steel fabric. If necessary, on irregular surfaces apply as skimming coat an adequate mortar from Basic, Betonfix, Tectoria or Limepor range. Prime the surface, using Kimicover FIX or Kimitech ACR depending on the nature and type of surface, then apply the Kimitech EP-TX in case of organic matrix or a high mechancial resistance mortar from Betonfix, Basic or Tectoria range in case of inorganic matrix. Once applied the first coat of matrix proceed anchoring the stainless stell fabric to the mechanical devices or in the holes previously drilled. Lay the fabric, apply the pretension and anchor the other end of the fabric. Using a trowel proceed pushing the fabric allowing the matrix to wrap accurately the micro-strands of the fabric. Fresh on fresh apply one more coat of matrix, covering all the surface of the applied steel fabric and creating a total thickness of 10 mm. The product can be used to create connectors for reinforcing systems using the following procedure: • Drill the holes where is necessary to install the connectors; • Cut the fabric respecting dimension required; normally, if the intervention is performed just on one side of the wall the dimension of the connectors will be the two-thirds of the thickness of the wall plus 10 cm (at least); • Roll the fabric up; • Insert the relloed up fabric in the hole and seal with chemicals form Kimitech range or mortar form Basic, Betonfix or Limepro range.
