Steel Wire Rope & Prestressed Steel Strand,1×7 12.70mm、1×7 15.20mm、1720MPa、1860MPa
1. Product Overview
Prestressed steel strand is high-strength wire strand made of high-carbon wire rod through wire drawing, stranding and stabilization treatment. The 7-wire structure is widely adopted, featuring high tensile strength, low relaxation, stable elongation and good toughness. It is the core material for prestressed concrete projects and can be matched with anchorages and clamps. We keep various sizes in stock and deliver goods from Tianjin Port within 5–7 working days for regular specifications. Original mill test certificates, mechanical test reports and third-party SGS inspection documents are available.

3. Product Classification
3.1 Ordinary Low-Relaxation Prestressed Steel Strand (Mainstream)
Standard 7-wire structure with stress relief stabilization, low residual relaxation and tiny deformation under long-term load. Common sizes: Φ9.53mm, Φ12.7mm, Φ15.2mm, Φ17.8mm Applications: Highway bridges, viaduct box girders, building floor slabs, prestressed concrete pipe piles, tunnel lining
3.2 Compacted Steel Strand
Compressed by die drawing with dense cross-section, smaller outer diameter and high filling factor for superior anchoring performance. Applications: Large bridges, nuclear power projects, long-span prestressed structures
3.3 Galvanized Steel Strand
Hot-dip galvanized surface for rust and corrosion resistance, suitable for outdoor, coastal and humid corrosive environments. Applications: Overhead power ground wire, slope protection, external bridge tendons, wharf supporting engineering
3.4 Unbonded Steel Strand
Steel strand wrapped with PE sheath and filled with anti-corrosion lubricating grease inside, no grouting required after construction. Applications: High-rise building floor slabs, underground garage roof, small municipal prestressed projects
4. Main Material & Strength Grade
Raw material: 82B high carbon wire rod for wire drawing
Standard tensile strength: 1720MPa, 1860MPa, 1960MPa (Grade 1860 is most widely used)
High carbon wire specially for galvanized strands with low impurity and uniform mechanical properties
5. Specification Parameters
Nominal diameters: 9.53mm, 12.70mm, 15.20mm, 17.80mm
Standard coil weight: 1.0 ton ~ 3.5 tons, small coils available upon request
Length: Continuous length per coil, custom cut-to-size available
Optional surface treatment
Bright bare strand: Standard phosphated lubricated black surface for embedding in concrete
Hot-dip galvanized strand: Zinc coating thickness meets national anti-corrosion standard
Unbonded type: Covered with high-density black PE sheath, filled with internal anti-rust grease
6. Core Product Advantages
Ultra-high tensile strength and low relaxation, small shrinkage deformation under long-term load to extend project service life
Flexible stranded wire structure for smooth threading, hard to crack during bending, compatible with complex tensioning ducts
Strict dimensional tolerance and uniform mechanical performance with small strength fluctuation within the same batch for consistent tensioning construction
Full range of spot stock including bright, galvanized and unbonded strands; customized special strength grades can be produced quickly
Full traceable quality: Each coil marked with heat number, strength grade and size; tensile, relaxation and bending tests are supported
7. Packing, Shipment & Trade Terms
Export packing: Each coil wrapped with VCI anti-rust film and outer waterproof plastic sheet, fixed with steel strapping; loaded on fumigated wooden pallets to avoid rust during sea transportation
Marking: Label attached on each coil showing size, strength grade, net weight, heat batch number and applicable standard
Loading Ports: Tianjin Port, Qingdao Port
Lead time: 5–7 days for stock goods; 7–15 days for customized galvanized & unbonded strands
Payment Term: 30% TT deposit, balance TT against copy of bill of lading; LC not accepted
