2. Core Engineering Advantages

· â€‹Dual-Barrier Corrosion Defense: Features a continuous barrier system combining moisture-displacing microcrystalline grease and an impermeable, stress-crack-resistant virgin HDPE outer sheath.

· â€‹High-Tensile Structural Core: Built upon premium 1860 MPa low-relaxation 7-wire steel strands, delivering robust load-bearing performance and minimum breaking load (MBL) reliability.

· â€‹UV & Environmental Resistance: The high-density polyethylene (HDPE) sheath is heavily fortified with UV stabilizers, protecting the tendon against solar degradation during outdoor storage and installation.

· â€‹Full Metallurgical & Protective Traceability: Manufactured under stringent ISO 9001 protocols. Each commercial shipment includes a comprehensive Mill Test Certificate (MTC) verifying mechanical strength and sheath integrity.

​3. Industrial & Infrastructure Applications

​Engineered for heavy-load structures exposed to aggressive environments and corrosive elements:

· â€‹Coastal & Marine Infrastructure: Port wharfs, piers, offshore platforms, coastal bridge decks, and marine retaining walls.

· â€‹Aggressive Environments: Wastewater treatment plants, chemical industrial floors, and structures subject to de-icing salts.

· â€‹Commercial & Geotechnical Engineering: High-rise transfer slabs, multi-story parking structures, and high-capacity permanent ground anchors.

​4. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

​Q: What makes this HDPE coated PT strand superior in corrosive environments?

A: It utilizes a dual-barrier protection mechanism. The specialized grease prevents moisture contact along the individual wires, while the thick, seamless extruded virgin HDPE sheath completely seals the tendon against chemical and saltwater infiltration.

​Q: Does the base steel strand meet international standards?

A: Yes. The underlying 7-wire strand complies strictly with ASTM A416 Grade 270 or BS 5896, ensuring full mechanical compliance with global structural engineering specifications.

​Q: What is the standard export packaging and protection during transit?

A: Coils are securely strapped, wrapped in protective materials, and palletized to prevent any mechanical abrasion or damage to the HDPE sheath during international shipping. A standard 20ft container loads approximately 20 to 27 metric tons.
