Synteen Technical Fabrics SF55 US Fabric Equivalent is SGU80

STRATAGRID SGU80 (formerly SG350) is engineered to be mechanically and chemically durable, in both the harsh construction installation phase and in aggressive soil environments (pH range from 3-9).STRATAGRID SGU80 meets the following properties:

Synteen SF55 is composed of high molecular weight, high tenacity multifilament polyester yarns that are woven into a stable network placed under tension. The high strength polyester yarns are coated with a PVC material. Synteen SF55 Geogrids are inert to biological degradation and are resistant to naturally encountered chemicals, alkalis and acids. SF Geogrids are typically used for soil reinforcement applications such as retaining walls, steepened slopes, embankments, sub-grade stabilization, embankments over soft soils and waste containment applications.
