⚑ Professional Cathodic Protection Solutions

Zinc Ribbon Anodes

High-quality zinc ribbon anodes for cathodic protection systems. Capable of normal installation at -30Β°C without risk of fracture.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Engineered for Excellence

Our zinc ribbon anode is extruded around a centralised galvanized steel wire core.

🎯 Precision Engineering

Our zinc ribbon anodes provide a cost-effective method for AC mitigation on pipelines and can be used as grounding mats for alienating current mitigation.

❄️ Extreme Weather Ready

Designed for challenging colder weather (-22ΒΊF/-30ΒΊC) environments, such as thawed zones in permafrost, providing reliable corrosion protection in the most demanding conditions.

APPLICATIONS

Versatile Solutions

Typical Applications of Zinc Ribbon Sacrificial Anodes across multiple industries and environments.

πŸ—οΈ Underground Pipeline Cathodic Protection

For protecting underground carrier pipes, pipelines within sleeves, and pipelines in congested utility corridors where installation space is limited.

πŸ›’οΈ Storage Tank Bottom Protection

Installed beneath above-ground storage tank bottoms to prevent corrosion, suitable for both new construction and retrofit projects.

πŸ”§ Well Casing and Borehole Protection

Effective for cathodic protection of the annular space between inner and outer casings in oil and gas wells.

πŸ“¦ Protection in Confined or Narrow Spaces

Ideal for cable trenches, conduits, ducts, small-diameter pipelines, and other areas where conventional anodes cannot be installed.

⛰️ High-Resistivity Soils or Complex Terrains

Suitable for pipelines crossing rocky, mountainous areas or high-resistivity soils where traditional anodes are less effective.

πŸŒ‰ Localized Protection of Bridges and Structures

Applied to steel pilings, sheet piles, bridge piers, and reinforcing steel in concrete structures for targeted corrosion prevention.

⚑ Stray Current Drainage and Mitigation

Used for stray current mitigation in areas affected by DC traction systems (e.g., electrified railways, subways, substations).
