The study of abaca strands from Sangihe Talud Islands North Sulawesi Indonesia has been developing for biocomposite materials. The aim of this research is to recognize abaca fiber’s tensile strength, so that it could be prepared for biocomposite application. Average diameter of abaca fiber is 0.151 mm. The result of this research had given its maximum tensile strength of 189.24 MPa. It shows that abaca fiber is potential to be developed as alternative material in biocomposite.
