Newton Exports Indented Prestressing Strand

Built for Global Export project specifications, the Newton Exports Indented Prestressing Strand comes from Newton Exports and is designed for short pretensioned precast products where the strand needs to develop full bond strength over a very short transmission length.

Fabricated to meet Project-specified (indented profile), dimensional coverage runs continuous surface indentations cold-formed into each wire of the strand to maximise mechanical bond with the surrounding concrete, sourced from the same primary wire rod stock used for Newton Exports’ bare strand lines.

Buyers of the Newton Exports Indented Prestressing Strand typically specify it across railway concrete sleepers, hollow-core precast slabs and utility poles, where a short, fast production cycle depends on the strand releasing its prestress force within a tightly controlled transmission zone.

Traceability on the Newton Exports Indented Prestressing Strand runs back to sourcing from whichever of Newton Exports’ Tier-1 partner mills – Tata Wiron, Usha Martin or JSW Steel – best matches the buyer’s lead time and volume, with every shipment lashed and timber-chocked to survive long ocean transit without coil damage or corrosion.

Coil handling for the Newton Exports Indented Prestressing 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.
