KIG Tech specializes in the factory-based production of cathodic protection materials and turnkey cathodic protection solutions. Our MMO tubular anodes are available in pre-packaged (canned) configurations, combining high-performance anode technology with simplified installation. These systems are optimized for the protection of pipelines and storage tanks worldwide.

Product Description & Specifications

Structure: Constructed from high-grade seamless titanium tubes conforming to ASTM B338 (Grade 1 or 2), coated with Mixed Metal Oxide (MMO). The coating varies by application—Ir/Ta for soil and freshwater environments, or Ir/Ru for brackish and seawater exposure.

Low Consumption Rate: MMO/Ti anodes offer extremely low wear—measured in milligrams per amp-year—retaining dimensional stability throughout their 20–25 year service life.

Current Capacity: Designed by diameter and length to deliver high current output—ranging from 6 to 70 A per anode in seawater, depending on configuration.

Canned Packaging: Each tubular anode is encased in a galvanized steel canister, filled with petroleum coke backfill to enhance current distribution and provide mechanical protection.

Typical Sizes: Custom lead wires available (e.g., PVDF/HMWPE,XLPE/PVC).

Applications & Advantages

These pre-packaged MMO tubular anodes are ideal for impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) in:

• Pipeline groundbeds (shallow or deep)
• Above-ground or underground storage tanks
• Reinforced concrete and underground metallic infrastructure

Advantages:

• Rapid Deployment: Pre-filled canisters simplify on-site installation
• Stable Performance: MMO coating resists degradation in high-chloride and oxygen-rich environments
• Low Maintenance: Long life span reduces the frequency of replacement
• Cost-Effective: Installation savings of 15–35% compared to traditional anodes

How Our Cathodic Protection System Works

In a complete ICCP configuration, MMO tubular anodes are installed in backfilled canisters at designated groundbed locations.

NACE-certified engineers design the anode layout—spacing, quantity, and cable routing—based on pipeline coating conditions and soil resistivity.

The system connects to a transformer rectifier (TR) equipped with remote monitoring and RS-485 communication, supplying a stable DC current to maintain protective polarization.

This integrated solution delivers accurate, reliable corrosion control, ensuring long-term protection over the full service life of the asset.
