What is PC Strand? (Prestressed Concrete Strand)

PC Strand consists of a group of six wires helically twisted around a central wire in a single layer and uniformly. It is designed to withstand the highest mechanical stresses by incorporating high tensile strength and consistent qualities.

This product is essential for structural integrity in applications such as bridge and viaduct beams, reinforced concrete prefabricated elements, concrete silo manufacturing, and ground anchorage applications.

We supply plain 7-wire strand in tensile strengths up to and including 1860 MPa, ensuring lighter structures and superior resistance to dynamic loads like earthquakes.

Prestressed strands offer outstanding features such as corrosion resistance by eliminating cracking, increased load-bearing capacity, and enhanced deflection (bending) control. This results in thinner, lighter structural members and significantly lower maintenance costs.
