product data GEOTEX 102F

GEOTEX 102F is a woven polypropylene geotextile containing woven monofilament/fibrillated yarns

produced by Propex, and will meet the following Minimum Average Roll Values (MARV) when tested
in accordance with the methods listed below. These characteristics make GEOTEX 102F ideal for the
construction of embankments over soft soils, steepened slopes, and modular block and/or wrappedface retaining walls. The geotextile is resistant to ultraviolet degradation and to biological and
chemical environments normally found in soils.
GEOTEX 102F conforms to the property values listed below.1 Propex performs internal Manufacturing

Quality Control (MQC) tests that have been accredited by the Geosynthetic Accreditation Institute
Laboratory Accreditation Program (GAI-LAP). This product is NTPEP approved for AASHTO standards.

The property values listed above are effective 04/2011 and are subject to change without notice.
Values shown are in weaker principal direction. Minimum average roll values (MARV) are calculated as the typical minus two
standard deviations. Statistically, it yields a 97.7% degree of confidence that any samples taken from quality assurance testing
will exceed the value reported.
Maximum average roll value.
