Magnesium anodes for cathodic protection projects where a higher driving voltage is required in medium to high resistivity soil.
Magnesium anodes provide a high driving voltage compared with common sacrificial anode materials, making them suitable for many soil-side cathodic protection applications.
Manufactured in accordance with ASTM B843-AZ63B standard, containing 90% magnesium, 6% aluminum and 3% zinc. Ideal for soil conditions where resistivity is under 3,000 ฮฉยทcm with driving potential of -1.55 volts.
Manufactured from high-purity magnesium according to ASTM B843-M1C alloy references. Open circuit potential can reach approximately -1.7 volts, depending on material and test conditions, supporting applications in high-resistivity environments.

Typical Applications of Magnesium Sacrificial Anodes across multiple industries and environments.
For protecting underground pipelines in soils with medium to high resistivity. Standard potential anodes are commonly used in lower resistivity soils, while high potential anodes are commonly selected for higher resistivity environments.
Installed beneath above-ground storage tank bottoms to prevent corrosion, suitable for both new construction and retrofit projects. High potential anodes provide enhanced protection in challenging soil conditions.
Internal protection for water heaters, boilers, and water tanks. Magnesium anodes provide effective galvanic protection in freshwater applications.
Corrosion prevention of metallic sheaths for buried cables in various soil conditions. The high driving voltage of magnesium makes it effective even in challenging environments.
Particularly effective in sandy, rocky, or mountainous areas where soil resistivity exceeds 2,000 ฮฉยทcm. High potential magnesium anodes deliver superior performance in these challenging conditions.
Protection of grounding rods, anchor bolts, and valve boxes. Magnesium anodes provide reliable long-term protection for critical infrastructure components.
While primarily designed for soil applications, certain magnesium formulations can be used in specific marine environments where galvanic protection is required.
