GT-401 Needle Punched, Non-Woven 4 oz. Geotextile Material, SZ. 5' x 360'

A geotextile is typically defined as any permeable textile material used to increase soil stability, provide erosion control or aid in drainage. Varying polymers and manufacturing processes result in an array of geotextiles suitable for a variety of civil construction applications.

Non-woven geotextiles are excellent for infrastructure and transportation applications such as paved/unpaved roads, drains, tunnel linings, and landfills. To form a dimensionally stable fiber network, they are manufactured from needle-punched, superior polypropylene staple fibers. This fabrication makes it possible for non-woven geotextiles to tolerate installation and construction forces. Similar to woven geotextiles, separation/stabilization is a primary function along with cushion/protection, filtration/drainage and demarcation.

SKAPS GT-140 is a needle-punched nonwoven geotextile made of 100% virgin polypropylene staple fibers, which are formed into a random network for dimensional stability. SKAPS GT-140 resists ultraviolet deterioration, rotting, biological degradation, naturally encountered alkalis and acids. Polypropylene is stable within the pH range of 2 to 13. SKAPS GT-140 is NTPEP certified and meets requirements as per AASHTO Standards and/or D.O.T. Standards.
