What Are the Application Acenarios of Indented PC Steel Wire?

The indented PC steel wire in our factory is made of high-quality carbon structural steel wire rod with a carbon content of not less than 0.8% as raw material, and is made through cold drawing, tempering and surface notching. During the product manufacturing process, the carbon steel wire as the basic parent material is first cold drawn and strengthened, and then a mechanical notching device is used to form evenly distributed elliptical surface notches; low-temperature tempering treatment will be carried out before delivery to eliminate residual stress and ensure stable material performance. High-strength, high-grip strength indented steel wire is widely used in various engineering scenarios that require high-strength connections and crack resistance: 

1. Bridge and Traffic Engineering

- Bridge structure: used for the main beam of large-span prestressed concrete bridges, anchor plates of cable-stayed bridges, etc., by providing high-strength prestress to enhance the bending and fatigue resistance of bridges and extend their service life (such as railway bridges and highway bridges).

- Railway sleepers: used for railway concrete sleepers to improve the crack resistance and bearing capacity of sleepers, adapt to long-term dynamic loads of trains, and ensure track stability.

- Slope support and geotechnical engineering: prestressed anchor cables are used for slope reinforcement, tunnel lining, etc., using high tensile strength to stabilize rock and soil and prevent landslides.

- Municipal transportation facilities: prestressed support structures of urban viaduct box girders and underground pipe galleries meet the high requirements of municipal engineering for durability and crack resistance. 

2. Construction Engineering Field

- Prestressed concrete components: used in high-rise building transfer layers and large-span factory building beam/slab structures. By applying prestress, the cross-sectional size of the components is reduced, the self-weight is reduced, and the crack resistance is improved (such as ultra-long concrete floor slabs and large-span roofs).

- Prefabricated components: used for prefabricating prestressed hollow slabs, composite beams, etc., with the help of strong bonding with concrete, the reliability of components during transportation and installation is improved.

- Municipal and hydraulic structures: prestressed structures in buildings such as water towers and sewage treatment tanks, which enhance impermeability and structural stability through prestressed confined concrete.

3. Special Environments and Functional Scenarios

- Marine engineering: Galvanized indented steel wire can be used for prestressed components of offshore bridges and port terminals to enhance the ability to resist seawater corrosion.

- Earthquake-resistant structures: In buildings or bridges in earthquake-prone areas, the prestressing effect is used to improve the structural ductility and reduce earthquake damage.

- Large-diameter storage tanks: used for circumferential prestressing reinforcement of oil and natural gas storage tanks, and the circumferential pressure is applied to prevent cracks in the tanks due to internal pressure.

- Special hydraulic structures: dams, prestressed concrete water pipelines, water storage tanks, etc., adapted to water environments or high-pressure scenarios, and use high crack resistance to ensure structural safety.

Summary

In these scenarios, the indented PC steel wire achieves lightweight structure, high durability and low maintenance cost through the synergy with concrete, which is especially suitable for projects with strict requirements on safety and reliability. Our factory supplies a large number of indented steel wires in stock, which can be shipped within one week at the earliest.
