Structural reinforcement for long-lasting structures
The additional of metallic products to the Fyfe's structural strengthening solutions enables us to deliver a more robust range of options to the structural strengthening industry.
We have recently launched Duktil FRP Anchor Plates which sit alongside LOCTITE Tyfo Ti NSM Bars that we brought to market in late 2024.
LOCTITE Tyfo Ti NSM Bars
The LOCTITE Tyfo Ti NSM bars are an aerospace grade alloy consisting of Titanium, 6% Aluminum and 4% Vanadium (commonly referred to as Ti-6Al-4V) used to strengthen reinforced concrete structures (e.g. slabs, beams, walls, columns and diaphragms).
These bars provide ductility, are high strength, light-weight tension members that do not corrode and do not fatigue. The LOCTITE Tyfo Ti NSM bars are typically bonded in grooves cut into the concrete cover of an existing structural element using a technique called Near Surface Mounting or NSM strengthening. The bars can be bent at the ends to provide anchorage and are designed to increase the structural performance as required by the engineer of record.
LOCTITE Tyfo Ti NSM bars:
- Provides a ductile strengthening alternative where externally bonded FRP is not suitable
- Improve flexural and shear capacity of existing concrete beam, slab, column and wall elements
- Extend the life of the structure
- Can be bent at the ends to provide anchorage.
Choosing the Right Fyfe Product for You
The below products can be used individually or combined with other LOCTITE Tyfo systems to form the ideal solution for your project. Contact us to learn more.
