Inquiry please provide: Standard, Diameter, Mechanical property (especially tensile strength), coil weight, Packing dimension, Quantity.
Packing: Export anti-rust packing with vapors corrosion inhibiting technology and 3 coatings. There are two wooden pallets on the bottom.
Application
- Our PC strand is mainly used for the reinforcement of prestressed concrete structures, such as large-span railway and road bridges, major bridges, silos, buildings, dams, floor slabs, foundations, large concrete vessels, atomic reactor buildings, stadiums, airport hangers, pre-cast segments, crane beams, anchorages and multi-storey industrial buildings etc.
- Our PC strand is also used for the construction of highways, poles and water towers in civil construction, and energy source sea transportation, house buildings, water control projects, and rock and earth anchoring components to increase the tensile force.

Pre-stressed concrete strand (PC strand) is a high-grade, low-relaxation, 7-strand steel cord used in the reinforcement and strengthening of pre-stressed concrete structures. Because it is used in critical applications, this strand consists of high-carbon steel with a high tensile strength, manufactured to the highest quality standards to ensure its durability. PC strand is available in several different thicknesses, ranging between .25 inches and .6 inches in diameter.
COMMON USES FOR PC STRAND
- Commercial buildings
- High-rise buildings
- Multi-level parking garages
- Stadiums
- Hangars
- Silos
- Railway sleepers
- Aqueducts
- Highway and railway viaducts
- Suspension bridges
