D5 D6 D7 Barrel With Wedge For 5mm 6mm 7mm Wire

What Is barrel and wedge?

In post-tensioned structures or components, the permanent anchoring devices used to maintain the prestressing tension and transfer it to the concrete.

 

 

Anchors can be classified into four types based on their anchoring methods: clamp-type (single-hole or multi-hole clamp anchors), bearing-type (forged-head anchors, nut anchors, etc.), cone-type (steel cone anchors, etc.), and grip-type (extrusion anchors, embossed anchors, etc.).

Tensioning End Anchorage

Tensioning end anchors can be further classified based on their anchoring types: Clamp-type anchors (YJM) for tensioning prestressed steel strands, steel conical anchors (GZM) for tensioning high-strength steel wires, dowel-head anchors (DM) for tensioning high-strength steel wires after heading, nuts (YGM) for tensioning precision-rolled threaded bars, and cold-forged swaged-end anchors (LZM) for tensioning multi-strand parallel wire bundles.

Fixed-end anchorage

Anchorage devices installed at the ends of prestressing tendons, typically embedded in concrete and not used for tensioning, are also known as squeeze anchors or P-anchors.
