Pre-stressed Concrete Strand (PCS)

  • Long extension bridges
  • Highways
  • Dams
  • Silos
  • Theaters
  • Buildings
  • Industrial structures
  • Our PCS is a 6-wire set around a center wire and is preformed and post-formed in order to keep the wire in the desired position.
  • Manufactured under the Camesa Quality Control System (CQCS). Camesa PCS meets or exceeds the following standards: ASTM A-416 and NMX B-292-1988 and all international specifications.
  • Extruded strand is manufactured to comply with the standards of the Post-Tensioning Institute.
  • Low relaxation tested and certified to 1,000 hours
  • Each coil is tested 100% in our laboratories, starting with the selection of raw materials, to the evaluation of final physical and mechanical characteristics.
  • We apply a stress relieving heat treatment to improve elasticity and strength characteristics.

FINISHING:

  • Bright
  • Galvanized
  • Lubricated and extruded with high-density, green polyethylene
  • Applications for pre-stressed concrete in two stages
  • Pre-tensioning
  • Post-tensioning

PACKAGING:
