Description
GATOR FABRIC GF 4.4 (N 535) is a needle punched non-woven geotextile made of polypropylene fibers. GATOR FABRIC GF 4.4 (N 535) geotextile is ideal for drainage, filtration and will allow water flow of 5307 l/min/m2 in a paver or retaining wall applications. Its filament fibers are used for soil separation and drainage. They combine high durability along with excellent physical and hydraulic properties. It is non-biodegradable and resistant to most soil chemicals.
Uses
