Bonded asbestos material is any material that contains asbestos in a bonded matrix. It may consist of Portland cement or various resins/binders, and it cannot be crushed by hand when dry. Asbestos cement (AC) products and electrical meter boards in good condition are examples of bonded asbestos material.
A large number of products made from bonded asbestos material are still found in Australian buildings,motor vehicles and plant components. These products include:
• flat (fibro), corrugated or compressed asbestos cement sheeting
• asbestos cement pipes such as electrical, water, drainage and flue pipes
• brake and clutch linings.
