Summary: | The invention allows to increase the cracking corrosion resistance of a wire under stress by introducing, through surface treatment by brushing, compressive stresses on the apparent surface of the wire.
The invention is notably applied for the manufacture of wire-reinforced flexible pipes. The reinforcing wires are subjected to a surface treatment by brushing after setting the wires on the flexible pipe. |
