Main uses
- Fosroc Galvashield® XP anodes are used for the protection of steel reinforcement embedded in concrete from corrosion
- When installed against the steel reinforcement, the anodes corrode in preference to the steel, drastically extending its service life
- Fosroc Galvashield® XP embedded galvanic anode series are used in concrete rehabilitation and new construction to mitigate the formation of new corrosion sites around the perimeter of a repair area or mitigate corrosion in new construction
Advantages
- Proven Technology - Galvashield® is the original embedded anode, it has more than 20 years documented and verified track record in projects worldwide
- Focused protection - Provides localized corrosion prevention / control where it is needed the most, at the interface of the repair and the remaining contaminated concrete
- Type 1A anode - Alkali-activated to maintain activity of zinc, meets building code requirements that prohibit intentionally added constituents that are corrosive to reinforcement within the repair area
- One-and-DoneTM connection - Innovative single wire connection that can be installed 2x faster than traditional 2 wire connections
- BarFitTM Design - Grooved edges on Galvashield® XP2,XP4 and XPX anodes assist with secure placement
- Steel Connection wires - Provides dependable steel-to-steel contact with no intermediate materials such as galvanizing that may compromise the long-term electrical connection
- Economical - low cost method of providing galvanic corrosion prevention/ control to structures in demanding service conditions
- Versatile - Suitable for chloride contaminated, carbonated, pre-stressed/ post tensioned and new concrete
- Low Maintenance - Requires no external power source or system monitoring
- Measurable - Anode performance can be monitored
- Long Lasting – minimum 20 years anode service life when using standard design tables; reduces the need for future repairs
- ICRI CSP-3 (Concrete Surface Profile) - Raised edges provide increased surface profile to promote mechanical bond with repair mortars and concrete
