FIBREKOR ® FRC IS A UNIQUE COMPOSITION of fine, unidirectional glass fibers combined with resin for the fabrication<br />
of fiber-reinforced, metal-free bridges. Each FibreKor bundle contains thousands of fibers with an average diameter of<br />
8µ to produce a bridge substructure that is strong, translucent and bonds seamlessly with the composite build-up. Metal-free<br />
bridge substructures offer a lightweight and esthetic alternative to metal bridge frameworks without the hyper-sensitivity<br />
issues that accompany metal alloys.<br />
THE RESIN FORMULATION FOR FIBREKOR ® FRC is similar to the resin formulation for Sculpture Plus Composites, the<br />
overlay material indicated for FibreKor frameworks. As Sculpture Plus composite is added to the FibreKor framework and<br />
cured, the resins in both products cure together. The end result is a finished bridge that fully integrates the fiber framework<br />
with the composite build up, virtually eliminating the possibility of the build up de-bonding from the framework.<br />
FIBREKOR ® FRC IS AVAILABLE IN 2K, 4K AND 16K BUNDLE SIZES to provide versatility, ease of handling and maximum<br />
strength for metal-free bridge restorations. The 2K bundle contains 2,000 individual glass fibers and the 4K bundle contains<br />
4,000 glass fibers; both bundle sizes are available in A, B, C, D and Clear shades. The 16K bundle contains 16,000 individual<br />
glass fibers with a filled resin for increased strength and overall quality. The 16K bundle is used to form a strong initial base<br />
for the bridge framework and is available in a single universal shade.<br />
