Fiber Filtration Tubes

A Fiber Filtration Tube (FFT) is an engineered composite of Thermally Refined™ wood fibers, man-made fibers and performance-enhancing polymers encased within cylindrical tubes composed of a heavy-duty, knitted, high density polyethylene mesh.


2. Fiber Filtration Tubes come in different diameters and lengths for a variety of applications;


3. Sediment Retention Device (SRD) When utilized as a SDR, the Fiber Filtration Tubes allows water to flow freely through its matrix, providing three-dimensional filtration of soil particles and facilitating the release of flocculants to coagulate and aggregate suspended soil particles.


4. The resulting combination of Flow, Flocculation and Filtration separates Fiber Filtration Tubes from other fiber rolls and wattles.


5. Slope Interruption Device (SID) When utilized as a SID, Fiber Filtration Tubes absorb concentrated flow and distribute it more evenly downstream of the tube.


6. The evenly distributed flow can dramatically reduce common rill erosion on slopes due to concentrated flow.
