Recommended Uses-Alternate: Please Select ...
Outstanding Features or Advantages Claimed:
	T900 geotextile enhances the performance and design life of granular layers by providing filtration and separation functions. When stone is placed directly on a soft subgrade, the imposed load often intermixes the two layers which results in loss of bearing strength, rutting, and deformation of the subgrade interface. Using T900 prevents layer mixing and the ingress of fines providing the user with long-lasting, durable roadways.
General Composition of Material:
	T900 is a heat-bonded, nonwoven geotextile that is manufactured from high tenacity UV stabilized virgin polypropylene fibers. This geotextile is manufactured using a randomly oriented web to provide isotropic properties. T900 provides excellent uniformity with high permeability and low pore size for soil filtration.
