Galvanized Coated
pc steel strand – High-Strength
Prestressed Steel for Durable Infrastructure Projects Overview: Galvanized coated PC steel strand is a premium-grade prestressed reinforcement material engineered for superior performance in demanding structural applications. With a protective zinc layer applied through hot-dip or electro-galvanizing processes, this high-tensile steel strand offers exceptional corrosion resistance—making it ideal for outdoor environments, marine exposure, and aggressive chemical conditions. Designed to meet global construction standards, it combines the mechanical strength of conventional
PC Strand with enhanced durability, ensuring long-term reliability in critical infrastructure projects such as bridges, highways, and industrial buildings. Key Features: - Corrosion-resistant galvanized coating for extended service life in harsh climates - High tensile strength (typically 1570 MPa to 1860 MPa) derived from heat-treated high-carbon steel wires - Available in standard diameters like 9.53 mm, suitable for both bonded and unbonded prestressed concrete systems - Enhanced surface adhesion for improved bond strength in concrete matrices - Compliance with international specifications including ASTM A416, EN 10138, and ISO 10138 - Environmentally resilient design for use in coastal, industrial, and urban settings Detailed Description: Manufactured using precision-engineered high-carbon steel wires,
Galvanized PC Steel Strand undergoes rigorous heat treatment to optimize its mechanical properties—ensuring consistent load-bearing capacity under sustained tension. The zinc coating acts as a sacrificial barrier against moisture, chloride ions, and atmospheric pollutants, significantly reducing rust formation compared to uncoated alternatives. This makes it a preferred choice for structures exposed to saltwater spray, deicing salts, or fluctuating humidity levels. Chunpeng Group, a globally recognized manufacturer with over three decades of expertise in prestressed concrete materials, produces this strand using advanced galvanization techniques that ensure uniform coverage and adherence to international quality benchmarks. Whether used in bridge decks, precast elements, or anchoring systems, the product delivers reliable performance while minimizing maintenance needs across decades of service. Applications: Ideal for heavy-duty infrastructure projects requiring long-term durability and minimal degradation, galvanized PC steel strand is commonly employed in: - Suspension bridges and cable-stayed structures where environmental resilience is paramount - Pre-stressed concrete beams, slabs, and columns in coastal or industrial zones - Anchorage systems for retaining walls, tunnel linings, and deep foundations - Photovoltaic mounting solutions exposed to variable weather conditions - Highway overpasses, viaducts, and elevated rail systems subjected to dynamic loads Customer Testimonials: “After installing galvanized PC strand on our offshore bridge project, we observed zero signs of corrosion after five years—even in areas directly exposed to seawater.” — Structural Engineer, Europe “Our team chose this strand for a new airport terminal due to its proven longevity in humid climates. It has exceeded expectations in both performance and cost-efficiency.” — Project Manager, Middle East Frequently Asked Questions: What makes galvanized PC steel strand more durable than regular prestressed steel? The zinc coating provides a physical and electrochemical barrier that prevents oxidation, even when the outer layer is scratched—a feature not found in bare steel strands. Is this product suitable for seismic-prone regions? Yes, its high tensile strength and consistent stress distribution make it well-suited for earthquake-resistant designs. How does the galvanization process affect installation? Hot-dip galvanizing adds minimal thickness but maintains flexibility; no special tools are required during installation—just standard tensioning equipment. Can it be used in combination with other reinforcing materials? Absolutely—it integrates seamlessly with rebar, fiber-reinforced polymers, and other prestressing systems in hybrid structural designs.
