Stressing Jacks are specialized hydraulic tools used for tensioning steel tendons, cables, and reinforcement systems in post-tensioning and structural engineering applications. They are commonly used in bridge construction, precast concrete work, and structural load reinforcement projects. The products shown below represent typical stressing jack systems available from our rental fleet. Additional capacities and configurations are available upon request.
