PC Strand Deflected Tensile Testing Machine - ToronDTT-500

ISO 15630-3 Compliant | Precision Testing for Prestressing Steel Wire Strands

Torontech’s ToronDTT-500 is a high-performance PC Strand Deflected Tensile Testing Machine specifically designed to perform deflected tensile tests on wire strands in full compliance with ISO 15630-3. This method evaluates the reduction in tensile strength caused by a 20° deviation around a specified mandrel, offering crucial insights into the mechanical properties of prestressed concrete reinforcement wire strands.

Test Method Overview – ISO 15630-3

ISO 15630-3 is the international standard for testing steel for the reinforcement and prestressing of concrete. The deflected tensile test assesses the reduction coefficient of the maximum force under uniaxial tension when the strand is deflected over a mandrel at a 20° angle. This test is critical for ensuring the durability and strength of PC (Prestressed Concrete) wire strands under realistic stress conditions.

Applications

  1. Steel wire strand manufacturers
  2. Construction material testing labs
