Customers can avail double acting multi strand jacks- long profile from us in capacities ranging from 200-350 tons and stroke length ranging from 100-300mm. This tool can work at maximum working pressure of 630 bar. The MSJ-LP series jack features wedgelock cylinder, mechanical stroke limiter and retract side relief valve.
Engineered for Demanding ProjectsOur MSJ-LP Series Double Acting Multi Strand Jacks are tailored for high-stress environments such as bridge construction and large-scale pre-stressing works. Built from high-strength alloy steel, they offer remarkable durability, safety, and performance for professionals demanding reliable and efficient tensioning equipment.
Flexible Capacity and Strand AccommodationThe product line covers a wide range of capacities, from 100T up to 600T, and accommodates 4 to 37 strands depending on the model. This flexibility allows engineers and contractors to select the ideal jack configuration for each project's requirements, supporting standard strand sizes (12.7 mm-15.7 mm) and ensuring versatile use on various job sites.
Ease of Use and Safe HandlingEach jack incorporates integral lifting handles and a metallic silver finish for easy transportation and identification on site. The double acting hydraulic system, featuring two oil ports for operation and return, makes operation smoother and safer, minimizing downtime and enhancing efficiency during critical construction phases.
FAQ's of Double Acting Multi Strand Jacks - Long Profile:
Q: How are Double Acting Multi Strand Jacks typically used in construction projects?
A: These jacks are primarily employed for multi-strand post tensioning systems in concrete structures, such as bridge decks and high-rise buildings. Their high capacity and ability to accommodate multiple strands make them ideal for heavy lifting, tensioning, and pre-stressing concrete elements.
Q: What is the benefit of the double acting (hydraulic return) mechanism in the MSJ-LP Series?
A: The double acting mechanism enables both the extension and retraction of the piston to be controlled hydraulically, ensuring faster, safer, and more controlled operations. Hydraulic return means the jack resets quickly, enhancing productivity and reducing manual interventions on site.
Q: When should I choose a jack model with higher capacity or strand accommodation?
A: Selection should be based on the project's tensioning requirements, including the total load to be applied and the number and size of strands used. For heavier structures or projects requiring greater force, higher capacity models (up to 600T and 37 strands) provide optimal support and safety margins.
Q: Where are these jacks most commonly implemented?
A: They are widely used in infrastructure applications across India and globally, including bridge construction, heavy civil engineering projects, and structures where concrete must be post-tensioned for enhanced strength and durability.
Q: What is the process for connecting the jack to a multi-strand system?
A: Each jack is designed with integral lifting handles for easy positioning. Strands (12.7 mm to 15.7 mm) are threaded through the jack according to the model's capacity, and hydraulic connections are made to the two oil ports for double acting operation, enabling controlled tensioning.
Q: Can these jacks handle different strand sizes and grades?
A: Yes, all models support strand sizes from 12.7 mm to 15.7 mm, as per IS:14268/JS 684 Grade 1860, making them suitable for a wide variety of pre-stressing tendons used in the field.
