GlasGrid® 8512


 

GlasGrid is manufactured in the United States at our facility located in Albion, New York.
  • GlasGrid is designed to reinforce asphalt concrete overlays, and help reduce reflective cracking for years to come.
  • Superb product engineering in the grid configuration of fiberglass strands, coated with an elastomeric polymer. Fiberglass is environmentally friendly and based on silica, a natural product.
  • Each strand has a remarkably high tensile strength and high modulus of elasticity at low elongation. This combination of outstanding tensile strength and high modulus makes GlasGrid actually stronger than steel.
