As spring returns to the earth and everything recovers, Wasungen Metal Products Co., Ltd. welcomes the blossoming of spring flowers!

PC wire grades and standards define the strength, quality, and long-term performance of prestressed concrete wire. This guide explains major international standards such as ASTM, EN, BS, ISO, JIS, and GB/T, along with common strength grades, relaxation properties, surface types, coatings, and testing requirements. Understanding these classifications helps engineers and contractors select compliant, durable PC wire for safe and reliable construction projects.

PC wire is used in prestressed concrete structures to counteract tensile forces, prevent cracking, and improve load-bearing capacity. Its high tensile strength and low relaxation properties allow concrete to remain compressed, increasing durability and service life. This technology enables long-span bridges, parking structures, railway infrastructure, and high-rise buildings that would not be possible with conventional reinforcement.
