Mirafi^® X-Series Woven Polypropylene Geotextiles

Product Description

Mirafi^® X-Series products are woven geotextiles comprised of UV stabilized polypropylene slit film. Mirafi^® X-Series Woven Polypropylene Geotextiles provide excellent puncture and tear resistant properties in addition to high tensile strengths.

Features and Benefits

• Construction. Woven construction offers excellent resistance to installation abuse;
• Strength. High modulus provide outstanding performance in a wide range of applications;
• Flow. Uniform openings provide excellent filtration and flow characteristics;
• Fabrication. Mirafi^® Silt Fence is prefabricated using Mirafi^® 100X geotextile and 3.2cm (1.25”) nominal square hardwood posts. Mirafi^® Silt Fence is available with 2.5m (8.3’) or 3m (10’) post spacings. Mirafi^® Envirofence is prefabricated using Mirafi^® 100X, 3.2cm (1.25”) nominal square hardwood posts, and a net backing for additional support. Mirafi^® Envirofence is available with 2.5m (8.3’) post spacings. All Mirafi^® prefabricated silt fence products are ready for immediate installation upon delivery;
• Cost. Mirafi^® 500X/600X geotextiles were developed to improve the economics and performance of roadway systems by reducing the amount of aggregate required, increasing the design life and reducing the maintenance cost, preventing periodic overstressing of the subgrade, and eliminating costly project delays by allowing all-weather construction. In addition, panels can be sewn together in the factory or in the field, providing cross-roll direction strength to facilitate installation, and providing reinforcement strength.

Applications

Mirafi^® 100X and 100CX are predominantly used for sedimentation control applications. Controlling the run-off is advantageous to owners, contractors, and engineers who face the economic costs associated with site sediment loss. Installed correctly, these sediment control geotextiles in silt fence structures function as a filter and a run-off flow velocity check. Fine-grained sediment is trapped by the geotextile while storm water run-off passes through the geotextile at a moderate rate.

Mirafi^® 500X

Mirafi^® 500X applications include separation under parking lots, residential streets, and roadways. Mirafi^® 500X is used over good to moderate strength subgrades for separation and confinement of base materials. Mirafi^® 500X is also utilized over moderate to poor subgrades for separation, confinement, and stabilization of base material.Mirafi^® 500X meets AASHTO M288-96 Specifications for Stabilization and Separation - Class 3.

Mirafi^® 600X

Mirafi^® 600X is used for separation and stabilization over very weak subgrades; and separation, confinement, and reinforcement for critical roadways and site construction where very coarse, angular, and abrasive base material is required. Mirafi^® 600X provides stabilization and reinforcement when heavy loads are expected. Mirafi^® 600X is effective in the construction of low embankments over weak subgrades, eliminating the need for costly excavation and replacement with expensive fill. Mirafi^® 600X meets AASHTO M288-96 Specifications for Stabilization and Separation - Class 1 and 2.
