Prepackaged Zinc Anode
Our prepackaged zinc anodes are designed to provide efficient, low-maintenance corrosion protection in environments with soil resistivities below 1000 ohm-cm. These anodes consist of a cast zinc core encapsulated in a permeable cotton bag or cardboard tube, surrounded by a highly hygroscopic backfill mixture. This design ensures optimal anode performance by maintaining consistent moisture levels around the anode, which enhances its conductivity and effectiveness.
Applications and Advantages:
Efficient corrosion protection: Ideal for use on well-coated metallic structures requiring minimal current output, where zinc’s lower driving potential provides optimal performance without overprotection.
Versatile applications: Commonly used as grounding cells for electrical equipment, such as power stations and transmission towers, as well as on pipeline insulators to control high voltages.
Chemical Composition:
Crafted from 99.9% pure zinc alloy, our anodes meet ASTM-B418 Type II standards, ensuring reliable, long-lasting corrosion protection in various environments.
