ADS ADS 117F US Fabric Equivalent is US 2020

US 2020 is a woven, monofilament filtration geotextile made of 100% high-tenacity polypropylene yarns. A Percent Open Area of 20% gives it excellent hydraulic properties, while reducing the chances of clogging. US 2020 resists ultraviolet and biological deterioration, rotting, naturally encountered basics and acids. Polypropylene is stable within a pH range of 2 to 13. US 2020 meets the following M.A.R.V. values except where noted:

ADS Geosynthetics 117F is a woven polypropylene geotextile and will meet the following Minimum Average Roll Values (MARV) when tested in accordance with the methods listed below. The individual filaments are woven into a regular network such that filaments retain dimensional stability relative to each other. These characteristics make ADS Geosynthetics 117F ideal for filtration beneath hard armor systems and around leachate collection pipes. The geotextile is resistant to ultraviolet degradation and to biological and chemical environments for normally found in soils. 1 The manufacturer performs internal Manufacturing Quality Control (MQC) tests that have been accredited by the Geosynthetic Accreditation Institute – Laboratory Accreditation Program (GAI-LAP). ADS Geosynthetics 117F conforms to the property values listed below. This data sheet for ADS 117F is provided for comparison purposes only.
