FIBERAND MINERAL
ROAD FIBER SPECIFICATIONS
FIBERAND Mineral
Road Fibers are processed fibers designed for exclusive use
in hot mix asphalt systems. FIBERAND Mineral Road Fibers
are man-made vitreous silicate fibers formed by the spinning
of a molten composition of furnace slags and other minerals.

PACKAGING AND
SHIPPING
1. Quality Assurance Reports, if requested, will accompany or precede each shipment. A Quality Assurance Report will state P.O. Number or Release Number, Quality Data and necessary customer reference information. Bales are recorded as truck load or rail car shipments.
2. FIBERAND Road Fibers are packaged in bales measuring 30" x 40" x 52".
3. Bale weight is 700 lb. (+/- 2%), bag weight is 30 lb. (+/- 2%).
4. Tractor trailer
trucks are loaded with 60 bales (30 pallets).
5.
Standard 40 foot container will hold 42 bales (21 pallets).
A 20 foot container will hold up to 22 bales (11 pallets).
6. A packing list,
protected from moisture, will be attached to the last bale loaded.
NOTES
1. Testing
for typical property parameters are not conducted on a routine
basis. Some parameters are checked on an annual basis or when
process or raw material changes are implemented.
2. As
is standard practice, the elements are reported as oxides, even
though no such individual crystals exist in the fiber.
