POST TENSIONING DUCTS

Introduction
Rex is a pioneer in India in introducing
plastic ducts as a better and
economic substitute of conventional
metallic ducts. Our previous version
Pre-StiRex is a renowned brand in the
field of PT Ducts with an experience of
supplying more than 5000 Kms. to
various infrastructural projects. This
experience and expertise allows us to
respond quickly to the market
Technical Data

Advantages g Can withstand more PT steel force during stressing & loads during
concreting.
g The Intermittent corrugations reduce wobbling effect of the ducts.
of Higher g Lesser support jigs / hooks are required at the time of profiling which saves
cost and time.
wall thickness g Lesser chances of accidental puncture while applying vibrating needle.
g With increased wall thickness these ducts even eliminate use of temporary
flexible PVC / HDPE tubes which are homed through sheathing to provide
adequate stiffness during concreting, this will further save the time and cost.

Flat ducts
The unique shape has made it an instant success. It
has catered to applications where space is a
constraint. Generally speaking, it won't be possible to
use the round section ducts in post tensioned slabs
due to the slab thickness constraint. Flat ducts have
proven to be a boon in this sector.
The design is quite unique and optimized, which has
an edge over the conventional metal ducts.
