Tension Rods systems

Supporting structures in tension

Dextra’s Tension Rods systems are usually purchased complete with fork end clevises suitable for connection to the host structure. Typical applications include hangers and supports, cross bracing and truss stiffening elements.

A number of different strength grades and surface finishes are available to fit all project technical and aesthetic requirements.

 

Customized architectural solutions for outstanding projects

  • Design Support: Dextra can support and advise in the early stages of a project, through to completion. BIM and CAD tools are available to aid the integration of the Dextra system into the structure.
  • Three grades of carbon steel are available up to a yield strength of 700 Mpa. Higher grades result in a more cost effective solution with smaller bar diameters and easier installation.
  • Two grades of a full stainless steel range with thread diameters M16 to M98 are also available, should this be required by the aesthetics of the project.
  • 20 different rod thread sizes in various steel grades.
  • Length adjustment is possible at the turnbuckle for all diameters, as well as at each Fork and Spade to match site requirements.
