JSW Neostrands IS 14268:2022 Grade 1860 LRPC Strand

JSW Neostrands produces the JSW Neostrands IS 14268:2022 Grade 1860 LRPC Strand for the strand size and grade combination that carries the bulk of India’s metro, bullet-train and expressway tendon demand today.

Produced in conformance with IS 14268:2022, the range covers fourteen listed diameter/area combinations between 6.9 mm and 15.7 mm at the 1860 MPa grade, all produced on wire rod mills the brochure describes as among the best-in-class globally, with cryogenic, fatigue and deflected tensile testing carried out at independent laboratories.

Contractors specify the JSW Neostrands IS 14268:2022 Grade 1860 LRPC Strand for the Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail (bullet train), Bengaluru Metro, RRTS, Dwarka Expressway and Mumbai Coastal Road, all named by JSW as projects supplied by Neotrex.

Every coil of the JSW Neostrands IS 14268:2022 Grade 1860 LRPC Strand passes through full batch traceability back to JSW Steel’s integrated wire rod mills, with cryogenic, fatigue and deflected tensile testing carried out at independent global laboratories in addition to Neotrex’s own computerised UTM and relaxation testing equipment on site.

Coil handling for the JSW Neostrands IS 14268:2022 Grade 1860 LRPC Strand: cut only with an abrasive disc cutter or shear cutter, never with a flame or welding torch, since heat changes the steel’s microstructure and its mechanical properties. Coils should be unloaded with a crane rather than dropped off the vehicle, stored under cover on a raised platform away from direct ground or water contact, and protected with a vapour phase inhibitor if they will sit on site for an extended period before stressing.
