Zinc Soil Anodes are used where soil conditions require the use of Zinc Anodes such as saline mud below 120 F (50 C). These anodes would protect objects underground such a storage tanks, containers, and buried structures.
Our anodes are used in recreational , commercial and millitary vessels.
Placed on hulls, propeller shafts, rudders, trimtabs, outboard engines,stem drives, and in coding system of most inboard engines to protect metal parts from galvanic corrosion.
Extruded Zinc Ribbon Anode
Zinc Ribbon Anode are used in a variety of applications. They provide a very simple ,cost effective, maintenance-free method of corrosion control for buried or immersed metals such as iron, steel, aluminium ,copper, etc. It is especially useful for unattended applications. It can also be used as a temporary system prior to the installation of an impressed current system and as a method of providing AC mitigation.
FAQ:
Q. When we we choose to use Zinc anodes ?
A. Exterior of underground or underwater pipe
