TerraGrid® U-500

TerraGrid® U-500 is a geogrid reinforcement for soil, manufactured with high molecular weight/high tenacity polyester yarns utilizing a complex knitting process and low temperature coating technology to provide superior engineering properties. The yarns are knitted into a dimensionally stable, uniform network of apertures providing significant tensile capacity. This polyester geogrid is engineered to be both mechanically and chemically durable, in both the harsh construction installation phase and aggressive soil environments (pH range from 3-9). A UV stabilized coating provides further chemical and mechanical benefits.
