Indented PC wire, also called indented PC steel wire, PC indented wires and oval indented PC wire, is a kind of PC wire which surface is indented. The shape of the indented surface can be round, ellipse, rhombus, etc. At the same time, the indented surface can be classified into two-sides, three-sides, and four-sides. Compared with the plain PC wire, it can heavily combine the steel wire with concrete in order to transfer the desired compressive force from the steel wire to the concrete. What’s more, it can save steel materials and increases the quality of the concrete structures, thus decreasing the concrete construction expenses and make the steel wire a better performance. And according to customers' special requirement, we can supply indented PC steel wires of different diameters, tensile strengths, and national standards.
